Who Can Apply for Canadian Citizenship By Descent
In the past, only a parent could pass down Canadian citizenship to a child born outside Canada. With Bill C-3 coming into force in 2025, Canadian citizenship can now be inherited not just from parents, but grandparents, great-grandparents, and even earlier ancestors who were born or naturalized in Canada.

Why This Matters Now
I've recently been featured on CNN, NPR, and CBC discussing how these changes are affecting families around the world. My firm specializes in applications for Canadian citizenship through descent — an application that I and my team have been assisting clients with for years before Bill C-3 became law.
Proven Results for Families Worldwide
Our team has extensive experience with families descended from Canadians, including multi-generational applications and cases with incomplete documentation. We have already secured approval for applicants across the US and around the world under the interim measures in 2025, and under Bill C-3 in 2026.

As a regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant with over 15 years of experience, I specialize in turning setbacks into success stories. I've secured approvals for clients who faced multiple prior refusals, guided complex cases across the finish line, and helped individuals and families overcome serious immigration challenges. Whether it's untangling paperwork mistakes, correcting legal missteps, or building a stronger case from the ground up — I don't give up when things get tough. I dig in.
