After completing the required background checks, the due diligence agency contracted by the Government will generate a report for the review of the Citizenship Unit. Based on the results of this assessment, the government will determine the status of your Saint Lucia Citizenship application. If the government approves your application, CI will contact you for you to make the necessary donation or investment.
At this stage you will receive your Citizenship Certificate and passport, and you shall pay the remaining balance of CI professional fees.
