Free Canadian Citizenship Tools
Plan your path to Canadian citizenship — from eligibility and timing to language and fees. Every tool is free, no account needed.
Applying for Canadian citizenship means meeting six requirements: permanent resident status, age 18 or older, 1,095 days of physical presence, tax filings, language proficiency, and no recent prohibitions. These tools help you check each one — then plan your application with confidence.
Getting ready for the exam itself? Take the free 10-question practice test — no account needed. Or start with free study chapters on Canada's Oath of Citizenship, the rights and responsibilities of Canadian citizens and Canada's founding peoples and languages.
Before You Apply
Check your eligibility, count your days, and budget for the application.
After You Pass
What comes next once you've passed the citizenship test — oath, certificate, passport.
Settling In
For newcomers: provincial services you'll need in your first months, with the official source for every answer.
These tools are informational aids, not legal advice. For official determinations and to apply for Canadian citizenship, always consult IRCC's official citizenship resources.
