The Central Registry Office is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Métis Citizenship and Harvester identification card application approvals and associated processes. The Central Registry Office maintains a database for MMF Citizenship, ensures that all of our Citizens' information is up-to-date, and assists Métis people through the process to obtain Métis Citizenship with the MMF. Using an objectively verifiable process, the Central Registry Office ensures that all of our Citizens and Harvesters meet the definition of 'Métis' as per the MMF Constitution and the nationally-adopted definition which includes self-identification, ancestral connection and community acceptance.
