Application for Citizenship for dependent daughter

[Jay729]

Hi everyone. My 5 years old daughter is arriving soon. My question is if I can apply her right away for citizenship once she arrives. We got our citizenship last year. Hope you can put your inputs. Thanks in advance!

I *think* that this is the correct path, in your particular case.

Some rules changed when Bill C-6 became law, and I think that this might be one of them...

Just checked. Section 5(2) was changed, but not in any way that affects you. You should be able to apply immediately, assuming that she is a PR.

Oh thanks a lot! Yes she will be landed immigrant or PR.
