Citizenship and Immigration Canada

By Henry J. Chang, Dentons LLP | 4 Minutes Read July 27, 2017

Government of Canada amends the Citizenship Act

Bill C-6 received royal assent on June 19, 2017 and eases many of the key eligibility requirements for citizenship, including the physical presence requirement and the requirement to demonstrate knowledge of Canada and its official languages. Bill C-6 also eliminates some of the more controversial elements of the Strengthening Canadian Citizenship Act, including the ability to revoke the Canadian citizenship of dual nationals based on national security grounds.

Canada to lift visa requirements for Mexican citizens

On June 28, 2016, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau formally announced that the Temporary Resident Visa ("TRV") requirement for citizens of Mexico travelling to Canada will be eliminated as of December 1, 2016. However, the existing TRV requirement will continue until November 30, 2016. Mexican citizens who wish to travel to Canada before December 1, 2016, will still need to obtain a TRV from a Canadian consular post.
