February 2018 - Citizenship Applicant

[Marlee]

No! For child physical presence requirement is not applicable! Thank you for adding!

That's weird. Where did you get that information? The CIC website says otherwise.

Had the test today and passed (19/20). Citizenship officer said we are all done except for security clearance. Once that comes through she will approve the application. But there is a backlog and it will take 6 to 8 months at minimum to complete. Anyone had this kind of experience? does it take long after test pass? I have applied from Ottawa.

Minors can apply in two ways:
- Without their parents, i.e. in their own right. That is "under subsection 5(1)". In that case they have to fulfill the physical presence requirement.
- But if they apply with their parents/their parents apply for them, i.e. their parents either are applying for their citizenship at the same time or they already are citizens, then the child does not need to fulfil the physical presence requirement. That is an application "under subsection 5(2)"
