I would be so grateful if somebody could help me find out if I am able to get Canadian citizenship!
My Grandfather was Canadian. He was born there. My Dad was born outside Canada in 1955 but has always had Canadian Citizenship. I was born in 1984 outside Canada (My dad was a Canadian Citizen when I was born)
I don't know why he never applied for citizenship when I was a child :( Every single one of my cousins has citizenship- same scenario also born outside Canada (their parents were also born outside Canada)
I know the laws changed in 2009, I believe if my dad was not born In Canada I may not get citizenship? But then on another website it says I do qualify if I had my 28th birthday after April 2009?
I am very confused!
Ps I have applied already (they started processing my application in July 2014 and it is still in process)
I just would like some idea as to whether I may get Citizenship or not?
Thanks in advance!
