Find the specific service
Start with the official portal and choose the program that matches the task.
Indigenous programs & services
Use the official Indigenous Peoples portal to identify the program and responsible organization. The right route depends on the service and community context; a general directory cannot determine a person’s eligibility or status.
Choose the right starting point
Confirm who administers it
Read the program’s own instructions and contact route before submitting information.
Protect personal documents
Complete any application at the responsible official service. Do not send identity or status documents to Canada Guide.
