I wonder if you stay in canada 3/4 years but you don't get a job and live with your own funds, do you still get the citizenship. Or yo have to get  job and pay tax. Any comments.

It doesnt matter whather you do job or not, you should be physically present in Canada to be eligible for citizenship.

Hi, I did not see  any discussion about CIC's requirement that you should be employed or engaged in a business to obtain Canadian citizenship.

To be eligible for citizenship you must have permanent resident status in Canada, and you  apply for Canadian Citizenship after you have been a physical resident of Canada for three years (1095 days) out of the four (4) years immediately preceding your application.

You will have to demonstrate a deep commitment to this country.

You will need to have sufficient knowledge of either English or French.

You will need to demonstrate your knowledge of Canada and the responsibilities and privileges of citizenship.

You must be 18 years of age or older to apply as an individual.

Hi Traumasurgeon,
I am sure you are evaluating worst-case scenarios but I am sure with your education and motivation, you will eventually be able to get your license and do what you do best.

Chin-up my friend,

SF 2005 thank you for your wish. And as you guessed we have to think all scenarios.

Be in Canada for 1095 days with in 1460 days period.

Apply; pass the English and the citizenship exam; attend the citizenship ceremony and then take the oath. You are done.
