Are we ready to apply for our Citizenship ?

[Shaikhzees]

I along with my family landed in January 2013 and since then we have been in Toronto only (apart from the 3 months vacation we spent back home)
When can we exactly apply for our Citizenship.

I read that the rule is you need to spend 4 years out of 6 years - but that rule (i believe) came after our landing.
Thus want to know from someone, when can we apply for our Citizenship.
Any office, we can call and confirm this // Thanks !

Go and create an account for each of your family members to figure out if you meet the physical presence calculator. I would also suggest you have 60-90 days more than you need so you don't have any issues for number of days needed:

this post answered multiple times elsewhere. The 4 out of 6 rule applies to you so use the calculator as proposed.

No - you don't qualify. The 4 out of 6 year rule applies to you. It doesn't matter when you landed. Which rules you fall under depend on when you submit your citizenship application. So you fall under the 4 out of 6 year rule. Under the current rules you will qualify sometime in 2017.

Thanks very much for the calculator. Never knew such a thing even exists (even after all my Google searches !)

Thanks everyone though !!
