Hi all,

Actually I am asking on behalf of a good friend of mine.
She was born in Montreal, came to Greece when she was 6 and she hasn't renewed her passport since.
Now she is married to a Greek and both of their children were born in Greece (Children' Ages: 16 and 13).
With the whole situation here in Greece the family is thinking to emigrate to Montreal.
I imagine that my friend needs only the birth certificate to renew her passport and that is the easy part... or isn't? :)
Does anyone know what is the exact procedure in order for their children to obtain the canadian citizenship and what is the procedure for her hubby to obtain one as well?
Thank you in advance.
