Do I have to stay in Canada all the time when I apply for Canadian citizenship?

After getting the Canadian Maple Leaf Card, you can apply for Canadian citizenship if you have lived in Canada for three consecutive years. Once successful, you can get a Canadian passport and visa-free travel to all western countries, including the United States. Note: naturalization requires everyone to apply separately, not the whole family. My wife has lived for three years. She can apply. If Mr. Wang is not full, he can't apply.

There are three main steps in applying for naturalization: application, evaluation and naturalization ceremony. The whole process usually takes 4-6 months.

Application:

Applicants can apply to the neighboring naturalization court or office and fill in the naturalization application form. When you fill it out, you can ask the staff there or the immigration assistance agency for help. Upon completion, the application form and necessary materials should be sent to or sent to the naturalization court or office.

Evaluation:

Generally, one week in advance, the applicant will receive a written notice about the time and place of the assessment. The examination paper is divided into English and French. The examination content includes the understanding of Canadian history, culture, geography and political system, as well as the rights and obligations of Canadian citizens. Generally, it will not exceed the scope of the two booklets "Canadian Citizens" and "A Glance at Canada".

Naturalization ceremony:

After passing the exam, you will generally receive a notice from the court two months later to attend the citizenship certificate issuing ceremony at the designated time and place. At the ceremony, the applicant will take the oath of naturalization and obtain a Canadian citizenship certificate.
