Hello! I'm a Canadian citizen born outside Canada to a parent born in Canada, and am currently sponsoring my husband and children to move back with me.
I know that children born outside of Canada to Canadian citizens born outside of Canada after 2009 are no longer automatically citizens unless they immigrate to Canada.
But because we are immigrating to Canada, I was wondering what steps I would need to take to get them citizenship. Because I'm their parent and a Canadian citizen, will they automatically be able to acquire citizenship upon moving back? Will they need to go through the classic process of becoming a naturalized citizen? How does that work?
Thank you!
