Can I include my family members in my citizenship application?

Asked 2 years ago
When applying for Canadian citizenship, an individual can include certain family members as part of their application. However, it is important to note that each family member must submit their own application for citizenship. This means that if you have a spouse or dependent children, they must be included in your application form as accompanying family members. Citizenship and Immigration Canada considers a spouse to be someone legally married to the applicant, while dependent children are those who are under the age of eighteen and who are not married. Each family member will need to meet the eligibility requirements for citizenship, including residency and language proficiency standards. For specific details regarding the application process for family members, it is always advisable to refer to the official website of Citizenship and Immigration Canada for the most current information and guidelines.
