I need help people.
I’m planning to apply for citizenship by descent, but my dad passed away over 20 years ago. I don’t have his naturalisation or citizenship certificate, so I requested his ATIP file. Do I still need to apply for a citizenship search even though I’ve already done the ATIP request?
