1. Assuming you are over 18 you are using the wrong form to apply for citizenship.
2. If you are applying for Proof of Citizenship, then the answer is N/A.
 
my situation is the following : I'm 18, my father was born in Canada ( now he lives in Italy ) and my mum is Italian. I'm filling the form APPLICATION FOR CITIZENSHIP CERTIFICATE ( PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP ) UNDER SECION 3 ( CIT 0001 ). Do you think it is wrong ?
Thanks for all the information you can give me
 
I also put N/A. To me, it seemed as though the form assumes both of your parents are Canadian citizens.
 
Thanks J.M , but when it says " did she leave Canada for more than one year before 1977 " what did you do ? Did you say YES , NO , or just nothing ? this is my probem very grateful if you can help me :)

By looking at the form, I am fairly certain I put N/A next to the YES/NO boxes. I believe the website has a video showing how the form SHOULD be filled out (I didn't notice the video until after I already sent in my application), and it might also be of help. If not, in step 2 of the application instructions it does state, "If any section is not applicable to you, write N/A."

Hope that helps! :)
 
My application was successful so if you put N/A, yours should be fine as well. Looking forward to receiving mine in the mail!
