Including your family

July 2019: Is my family included in my citizenship application?

The answer is “generally yes” – but different countries have issued different limitations. The following bulleted list provides a brief overview of countries and their definition of "family":

- Malta: The main applicant may include a spouse or long-term partner (any gender), children under 18 years of age, financially dependent adult children under the age of 29, and parents and grandparents over the age of 55.

Malta Citizenship Family Inclusion
- Cyprus: The main applicant may include a spouse, children under 18, financially dependent children under 29, and parents.

- Bulgaria: If structured correctly, a single application can cover three generations: parents (husband and wife), their children (including the spouses of all siblings), and their children. This is possible because Bulgaria imposes no age limit on children.

- Greece: The main applicant may include a spouse, children under 21 years of age, and parents.

- Portugal: The main applicant may include a spouse, minor children under 18, financially dependent children over 18, and parents over 66.

- Spain: The main applicant may include a spouse, minor children under 18, financially dependent children over 18, and parents over 65.

- Canada: The main applicant may include a spouse, minor children under 19, and financially dependent children over 18. Parents and grandparents may be sponsored under a separate program.

- USA: The main applicant may include a spouse, and minor children under 21. Parents may be sponsored under a separate program.

- Caribbean: The main applicant may include a spouse, minor children under 18, and qualifying dependents over the age of 18. Specific rules apply based upon the number of dependents to be covered under a single application.
