Thank you, i am aware of everything you have told me in your comment but in order for me to continue with my application for citizenship i need to be very clear as to what act/s were in place between those dates. Thank you

Hi, I have made numerous posts on here and been given some great information and well with that i hope some of you great people can answer me this, What legislation regarding citizenship was in force between August 15 2004 to April 17 2009? I have asked CIC and the Canadian consulate and...

Thank you for your responses, they have been very helpful to me, i will indeed apply stating these sections of the 1977 act and will inform you of any correspondence that i recieve

Again thank you for your replies, these are helping. I do however have two more questions which as of yet the Canadian consulate has not replied to me about. Did my Grandfather become a citizen in 1947 or was this restored to him retrospectively to 1947? His mother and father lived in Canada...

Good afternoon, I have read many threads on here and i'm still very confused, my grandfather was born in Canada 1930 and died a Canadian citizen as his last passport was a Canadian one, he had 5 children in England and never gave up his citizenship, my mother was born in 1961 the middle of the...
