Canada is considering expanding citizenship eligibility to second-generation children born abroad if Bill C-71 passes. In anticipation, IRCC introduced interim measures to expedite citizenship for those affected by the first-generation limit (FGL).

IRCC's new interim measure speeds up citizenship for certain foreign nationals. Historically, citizenship was limited to children born abroad if parents were born in Canada. Bill C-71 may expand this. New measures apply to urgent cases needing benefits, employment, or travel due to family issues.
