I am a Permanent Resident applying for citizenship for the first time (Grant)I was previously a Canadian citizen and am seeking to resume my citizenship
Citizenship requires 1,095 days of physical presence in Canada within the 5 years before you apply. The questions below help EBBI calculate this accurately on your behalf — we do not expect you to do this math yourself. Time spent in any of these situations does not count toward physical presence and may affect eligibility timing. Time outside Canada as a Crown servant or their family member can count at full value toward physical presence, as an exception to normal rules.
Did you spend any time in Canada as a temporary resident (work permit, study permit, or as a protected person) BEFORE becoming a Permanent Resident?
YesNo - I became a PR directly
Have you ever served time in prison, been on parole, or been on probation in Canada? NoYes
Were you, or your spouse/parent, ever a Crown servant (e.g. Canadian Armed Forces, federal public service) posted outside Canada during this period? NoYes
Applicants aged 18-54 must demonstrate language ability (English or French) and pass a citizenship knowledge test. These requirements may not apply outside this age range.
Have you filed Canadian income tax returns for at least 3 of the last 5 tax years (if required to file under Canadian tax law)?
YesNoNot required to file (please explain below)Not sure
Have you taken an approved English or French language test, or do you have other proof of language ability (e.g. study in an English/French program)?
