Services for Canadian Citizenship Applicants

Canada’s new citizenship law appears to make many people with Canadian ancestry eligible for citizenship by descent, even when the Canadian connection is many generations back. For Americans with Canadian, French Canadian, Acadian, Maritime, or other Canadian roots, this could be a major opportunity. But eligibility depends on proving the exact parent-child chain from you back to the Canadian ancestor.

That is where the hard part usually begins. Many families need records from multiple states, provinces, churches, courts, and archives to document the full line. I help clients identify whether they may have a Canadian citizenship claim, trace the necessary lineage, locate the supporting records, and assemble the documentation needed for a citizenship certificate application.
