Grandmother and granddaughter embracing – add a family member to a Canadian citizenship by descent claim

Citizenship by Descent

Add a family member to your claim

For a sibling, child or cousin who claims through the same Canadian ancestor as an existing ImmigrationShop citizenship client.

What's included

  • Reuse of the shared ancestor evidence already in your family's file
  • A checklist for this person's own records
  • Their own CIT 0001 form and cover letter
  • Review and sign-off by a licensed Canadian lawyer before filing

What happens after you pay

  1. We link this applicant to the family file and send an engagement agreement.
  2. They complete a short guided intake.
  3. We prepare their application alongside the first applicant's.

Good to know: this add-on works with a first-applicant claim ($1,450). Government fee: CAD $75 per person, paid directly to IRCC.
