Hi, First I want to apologize to the moderators if I posted this in the wrong forum.

My question is would I and my 2 sisters still be able to apply for Citizenship? For background My parents went to Germany to visit my uncle but in that 1 week period my father got called that his mom is sick, Unfortunately he went home to Hungary for 3 days out of that 1 week they were away. On their way back they got sent to secondary where CBSA found out they were in Hungary and seized their Canadian Travel Document, They also had someone from immigration come down and fill out information which she then said gets sent in to a board ( I assume Immigration board who handled cessation?) She said it's up to them if they want to pursue their case or not.

We are also looking for lawyers but online I haven't been able to find one who is willing to help them out so if anyone has any recommendations that would be much appreciated.

Now back to the original question, I was planning on applying for citizenship just next week once I got paid from WSIB as I'm currently on a work injury leave. My sisters were also in the same boat as me to apply around the same time with parents, Now we are confused if my sister and me (21M) could still apply ? CBSA wasn't able to give an answer and I wasn't able to find one online or on this forum.
