Hello there,
My partner and I plan to work and travel in Canada for a couple of years (both early 20s and hold Australian passports/citizenship.) My mum was born in Canada and lived there for a couple of years before moving to the USA. Do I need to apply for a working holiday visa or do I automatically have one because of my mum? If so, what documents or applications do I need to fill out before leaving Australia for Canada?
Thank you very much for your time!
 
You need to apply for proof of citizenship.

Processing time is around 6 months.
