Currently, OneFeather can only help with renewals and replacements of Status Cards for those who already have a status number (are already registered under the Indian Act).
If you are looking to apply for your Indian Status, the process will need to be completed directly through your First Nation or via Indigenous Services Canada. They’ll guide you through the steps and required information and documents to get started.
