Citizenship for Minors became CHEAPER

The fee for citizenship applications for minors applying without a parent (under subsection 5(1) of the Citizenship Act) has been reduced by the Government of Canada from $530 to $100. This follows a legislative amendment that removed the requirement to be 18 years old to apply for citizenship as of last June. It also brings the fee into line with the processing fees for minors applying with a parent (under subsection 5(2) of the Citizenship Act).
