Hi Everyone, hope someone can help me. I am eligible now to apply for my citizenship. I met all requirements.

I have a minor daughter who became a permanent resident 2years ago. I included her on my PR application but since I'm here as temporary worker, i met the 1095 days already within 5years.

Question: Can i include my daughter on my citizenship application or does she need to complete the 1095 days requirement still?

Thanks in Advance

I doubt very much that minor can be citizen before completing 1095 days if the minor became PR and born out side Canada

These requirements don’t apply to children under 18 where a parent or guardian has applied on their behalf for citizenship using the subsection 5(2) application form.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/canadian-citizenship/grant/minors.html

Minors are not subject to the language, residence and knowledge requirements that adults are subject to under the Citizenship Act.
