If you are a PR in Canada, you need to stay in Canada at least 730 days in any 5 year period.  That means you can be gone for up to 3 years if you stayed the previous 2 years in Canada and will stay the next 2 years in Canada after you come back.

I kind of sense that you are not really hot on migrating to Canada. Why?  First, if you are serious about it, then you would study in Canada.  There is no point studying in the Philippines when its education is not recognized in Canada.  Why get an education there and then go back to Canada?  It just does not make sense.   Second, if you are serious about it, then you would be finding ways to complete your stay in Canada as soon as possible in order to get citizenship status.

In the end, you have to decide what you really are after.  Stay in your country or move to Canada?

They do recognize nurses from other countries but they need to take a test to be allowed to work.

how long is the nursing degree in Philipines?

Can't the OP leave now and come back 5 months prior to the 5 years are over and still retain PR or the OP could come back during vacation time and spend 5 months in Canada.

I am not an expert at Canadian Immigration. The CIC website is a great (if not the greatest) resource for Canadian Immigration. Also see http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/common-questions-t13225.0.html

Yes, she could.  She only needs to make sure that she's never more than 3 years total outside Canada in a 5 year period including all vacations etc. 

If the school year is 9 months, she could manage a 4 year course without losing her PR if she comes back 3 months a year in the summer or if she has been in Canada a solid 1 year and 7 months when she leaves, no vacations, she could be gone 3 years exactly but then she needs to come back for 2 years.
