Canadian citizens have access to more rights and opportunities than those holding permanent residency. Once you fulfill the eligibility criteria for citizenship, you can take the citizenship test. Typically, within six months of completing the test, you will receive an invitation to the oath-taking ceremony, where you formally commit to the responsibilities and privileges of Canadian citizenship.
As a Canadian citizen, you gain specific rights and protections. These include freedom of thought, expression, and religion, the right to vote, to assemble peacefully, rights for Indigenous peoples, freedom of movement, equality under the law, and access to legal protections.

Step 6: Test and Interview Preparation
We offer guidance on what to expect from the Citizenship test and interview process, including practice resources and question types.
Q1: How many days do I need to live in Canada before applying for Citizenship?
You must have been physically present in Canada for at least 1,095 days within the last five years before applying.
Q2: Can I apply for Citizenship if I’ve travelled a lot outside Canada?
Yes, but your travel must not reduce your physical presence below the required threshold. You will need to provide a detailed travel history.
Q3: What language proof does Canada accept for Citizenship?
Accepted documents include IELTS or CELPIP scores, specific educational certificates from English- or French-speaking institutions, or proof of secondary/post-secondary education in English or French.
Q4: Do I need to take a test for Citizenship?
Suppose you’re between 18 and 54 years old. In that case, you’ll need to pass a written Citizenship test covering Canadian history, Government, symbols, and rights/responsibilities. There may also be an interview.
