Applying for Canadian citizenship has absolutely no impact on US citizenship. There are tons of Americans who have successfully obtained Canadian citizenship and are now DUAL citizens! I know a couple of these, myself.

My wife is a US citizen, and at some point in the future (after I’ve obtained Canadian citizenship, myself) she plans on applying for Canadian citizenship as well. My research indicates that it would not affect her US citizenship in any way shape or form!

Are you a Canadian citizen? On what basis is your daughter applying for Canadian citizenship? As the captain rightly said, acquiring Canadian citizenship has no impact on US citizenship, and vice versa. I have both and I also got my US born child Canadian citizenship by descent.

Yes, I am a Canadian citizen by naturalization. I want to apply citizenship for my US born kid who is PR right now.
