Canada PR works in US - applied to sponsor parents

[parpari]

Hello everyone:
I wonder if anyone knows how this works out:
I am a Canada PR and next summer, after I apply for citizenship, I plan to go to work/study in a lab in US for a couple of years. I filed to sponsor my parents to immigrate to Canada about 10 months ago and according to the latest timeline, their file will be processed in about 2 years from now. It is possible that my application for citizenship is still in process at the time my parents application is processed. How would this affect my sponsorship application? If I am not a citizen by then, should I be living and working in Canada in order for my sponsorship application to work? Is my being a PR is enough or not?
I appreciate it very much if you share your experience and knowledge about this with me.
Thanks,

If you aren't residing in Canada, your parents application will be refused.
