If either of your parents or grandparents have Indian status, you may be eligible to apply for status.

Status may provide you with benefits, rights, programs or services offered by federal and provincial governments.

To find out if you are eligible for Indian Status, ask yourself:

  • Do either or both of my parents have status?
  • Do any of my grandparents have status?
  • Anyone in my immediate family, for example, an uncle, an aunt or a cousin?
