Hello,
My cousin was born in Malaysia and currently holds Malaysian citizenship. His father is Canadian and mother is Malaysian, and they're contemplating moving to Canada.
Assuming my cousin completes all the prerequisites for citizenship (ie. Stay here for 5 years, citizenship tests), would he be eligible to apply for Canadian citizenship? When applying, would he be forced to give up his Malaysian citizenship (as Malaysia does not allow dual nationality), or can he hold both Malaysian and Canadian citizenship?
Appreciate any insight, thank you guys.
