Applying for Citizenship is indeed a momentous occasion for many eager permanent residents of Canada who have been patiently waiting for the day to arrive. In order to become a Citizen of Canada, you must meet the basic residency obligation to do so. That is, being physically present in Canada for 1,095 days in the past four years before you apply. Aside from this, your application will be assessed against 5 other conditions:
Of these factors, the most significant might be considered any preclusions or reasons why you might not be able to obtain your citizenship status.
Preclusions might be any criminal inadmissibility and your permanent resident status.
You have been convicted of an indictable (criminal) offence or an offence under the Citizenship Act in the three years before you apply,
If you are on probation or are charged with a crime and waiting for a trial, you should wait until after the probation is done or your trial is over to apply to become a citizen.
Time in prison or on parole does not count as time you have lived in Canada. Time on probation also does not count if you were convicted of a crime.
Aside from these factors, your time in Canada, age, and language abilities speak for themselves.
