Baby Citizenship of International Student Parent

[Bin Hashim]

Good day,

I have searched the forum for this topic, but could not find recent responses i.e. after the 2009 and 2015 Amendments to the Citizenship Act.

1 - Will my new born baby be granted the canadian citizenship at birth?
2 - Will it be any different if she was born in Quebec?

Regards

1. Yes.
2. It's the same no matter where your child is born in Canada.

Thanks Bin Hashim for starting the topic.

I too have another question related to this,
My wife is on Student Dependent visa, How are the medical expenses for a non-citizen/non-pr.

She should have a visitor record, in BC she can get MSP with that but don't know about other provinces

Can a child born in Canada get citizenship if BOTH parents are on a VISIT visa?

Yes - the child will be a citizen.

Citizenship by Birth --> Jus Soli (right of the soil): It's a Canadian national law
