Canada’s citizenship laws changed significantly in 2025, and many Americans with Canadian parents or grandparents may now qualify for Canadian citizenship by descent. Under the updated Canadian Citizenship Act, individuals previously excluded by the “first-generation limit” rules could now have a pathway to citizenship eligibility through their family lineage.
