If a child is born in Canada, are they Canadian?
Find answers to your legal question.





If a child is born in Canada, are they Canadian?

Like in the US, if a child is born here, they are American citizens, does that same rule apply in Canada, or are they not Canadian citizens?


    




Leon
There are a couple of exceptions like if their parents are diplomats. Other than that, all babies born in Canada are Canadians.

Yes the child is considered a Canadian citizen.

BUT the child is NOT entitlted to ANY benefits IF both of the parents are NOT permanent residents or canadian citizens.

If one parent is a Canadian citizen and the other parent is in Canada LEGALLY, then the child may receive the child benefit. The child MUST live in Canada to get this benefot. It is NOT available if you live OUTSIDE of Canada.


Thinker....
They would be Canadian Citizens.
