I am citizen but my baby born outside Canada

[Sumonaney]

Hi me and my wife both Canadian citizen, we came in Canada as worker then got PR and Citizen.

We are currently outside of Canada due to my wife job .

So my question my new born baby wit be Canadian citizen or not .

If yes what step we should follow .

Yes ur baby is canadian citizen. I believe you have to apply for proof of citizenship through ur local embassy

[Need Canadian Pr]

But the new rule said parents have to be Canadian citizen by born as you were immigrant and then got Citizenship So you might can't apply .

I am pretty sure that if the baby was born after the parents became citizens, then the baby born outside Canada is a Canadian.

The child will become citizen by descent but parents are naturalized.

Ok thanks what I understand if any one of parents ( mom or dad ) become citizen and the baby born outside Canada after their citizen then the baby will be citizen by descent .

Pls correct me if I am wrong and thanks for your information it is very good to know .

You can see below text from IRCC website dealing with such issue

"
Is your child already a citizen?
A child born outside Canada to a Canadian parent on or after April 17, 2009, is a citizen by birth if the child is in the first generation born outside Canada, and the Canadian parent:

• was born in Canada, or
• became a Canadian citizen by immigrating to Canada (becoming a permanent resident) and being granted citizenship (also known as naturalization)."
