Yes, as per the current CIC calculator, i have the required days of physical presence.
So you implemented new rule on July 1st.MUFC said:You can apply separately , no problem.
Just make sure that you have at least 1095 days of physical presence before July 1st.
It depends on what benefits you get by taking Canadian citizenship alone in the family.If you are from third world country(me too) and make lot of international trips alone then take Canadian citizenship asap. Else apply together. At least you will save some time.Now you have to go through all the formalities and after 1 year again for your wife and kid.Its double work.Sometimes if husband is Canadian citizen and wife is not will give some difficulties.Some countries don't allow dual citizenship.If your home country wont allow dual citizenship then to go for a family vacation you have to get a visa.Your Canadian passport will expire 1 year before your wife's Canadian passport in future.Renewal time will be different.That will be double work.In Canada citizen and PR have almost the same rights.Think about the pros and cons and decide.pank123 said:A newbie here!
I am in a big dilemma, seniors please HELP!!
I'll be eligible to apply for Citizenship in June but my wife and son will not until October of this year.
Should i go ahead apply for my Citizenship or wait to apply with the whole family?
Can i apply separate for myself in June and separate for my wife and son when they become eligible under the new law?
I wish your words come true.I will be eligible on 26 June.MUFC said:Before the actual cut off date everyone is applying under the current rules.
I don't see anything to bother the people who will be eligible to apply before Canada Day.
I see in this thread that lot of people are sticking to 19th June.MUFC said:Do you see any official and confirmed danger for your application?
Because I don't.
