Could you be Canadian?
Canada’s recent changes to citizenship law (Bill C-3) have opened the door for thousands of people to claim citizenship through their ancestors.
I am a Certified Genealogist® (CG®) and Accredited Genealogist® (AG®) specializing in research between Maine, New England and Atlantic Canada. I help clients document their eligibility for Canadian citizenship, and am pursuing my own citizenship certificate.
How I Can Help
If you believe you may have a path to Canadian citizenship by descent, I can assist by:
- Identifying and verifying your line of descent
- Locating vital records and supporting documentation
- Analyzing evidence and resolving conflicts
- Preparing written proof arguments when required for your application
Fees
Research is conducted in project blocks:
- Initial Project Block: 15 hours – the majority of projects are completed within 15 hours.
- Hourly Rate: $150/hour
- Initial Investment: $2,250 + direct expenses (e.g., document fees)
A 50% deposit is required to schedule projects. There is no charge for unused hours.
Timelines for these projects are difficult to predict at this point. Increased demand at archives and government repositories has led to increased wait times for records, approaching six months in some cases.
