Citizenship requirement ( 3years ) ?

Hi All,
Can anyone tell how long it will take to implement the 3 years physical presence requirement for citizenship? Do you know the status of approval ?

Thanks

No guarantees. No reliable forecast for when changes will take effect. Not likely to take effect, at the very soonest, before fall. Could easily go into next year.

As noted: no guarantee. Beyond that, it is highly likely most of the current version of Bill C-6 will be adopted and become law. But lots of legislation gets left on the vine, so to say.

Last I looked the Bill was still in second reading. Once second reading is completed, the Bill will be referred to committee for study and assessment. There may be consultations done in this process. It still needs to go to the Senate, which is not likely to kill the Bill but could easily force consideration of amendments. After a Third Reading in the House of Commons and an affirmative vote, it then goes to the Governor General for Royal Assent. Only this last step is a formality (Royal Assent is fairly well guaranteed once Parliament has appropriately adopted the Bill). All the preceding steps are substantive parts of the legislative process, subject to debate and proposed amendments and a vote. Since the Liberals have a comfortable majority, and it appears the NDP is in favour, there should be no serious hurdles, but it is not over until it is over.

If there is any serious opposition that is likely to target the repeal of subsection 10.(2) in the Citizenship Act (provision authorizing Minister to revoke citizenship for persons convicted of certain crimes), but so far the public seems in favour of Trudeau's motto a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian. But if, for example, there was a major terrorist attack in Canada, or directly affecting Canada, before the Bill is fully adopted, that could possibly affect its progress.
