You will be considered an official CIE applicant only once you have registered fully on www.israelforfree.com AND completed Steps 2 & 3.
Applicants will be accepted to the Taglit-Birthright Israel: CIE program as part of a lottery system. Please note that a certain percentage of the allocated spaces are distributed on a discretionary basis. For more detail on this, please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions page.
2) “Is that it? What do I do next?” Once we receive your initial application you will be contacted by a local CIE representative to schedule a mandatory trip interview.

PLEASE NOTE if either you or one of your parents were born in Israel: |
If you were born in Israel, we require proof that you have resided in Canada since the age of 12. In addition, if either you or your parents were born in Israel, you must contact the Consulate or Embassy of Israel to enquire if you should obtain an Israeli passport and Army exemption papers. Please note these documents may take 6-8 weeks to be processed. We encourage you to begin this process immediately once you have applied for a trip.
