So my PR card expired in June 2021 and I last arrived in Canada on the May 21st 2021 and have been here since then. I was Also in Canada from June 7th 2019 - July 23rd 2019 and August 14th 2019 - September 7th 2019.

So my days in Canada in the last 5 years in total are: 751 the thresholds 730.

So with that in mind I figured it's very reasonable to renew my PR card (I would like to visit my home country England, it's been a long time).

However on the application it says that my time outside of Canada must not exceed 1095 days within the last 5 years (Ugh). So from the 7th of September 2019 to May 21st 2021 = 621 days outside of Canada and before then July 23rd 2019 - August 13th 2019 = 21 days and before then was 2nd of April 2018 to June 7th 2019 431 days (note: I was in England before 2nd April 2018 date but as we're going from the last 5 years I assume it is correct to put this as the start date - correct me if I'm wrong). So in total that's 1073 days outside of Canada within the last 5 years.

Would it be safe to renew my PR with all of this information? I want to go home in time for my birthday in the next couple of months and not being able to leave for a visit has been a little mentally taxing but I want to get this right and make sure this goes through smoothly.

Any help would be much appreciated.
