If read correctly you have been back in Canada without leaving since 2016 . The residency obligation requires you to have spent 2 years in a Canada in the 5 years preceeding your PR card renewal so you have met that requirement.

But I mean I really did leave Canada more than 1095. And I came back Canada been 2 years PR card already expired, if I renew before expire 2years requires not enough. Only till Jan 2019 count more 730 days in Canada. Is this possible me to renew?

Yes. I would suggest you give yourself a bit of a buffer and no apply at exactly 730 days. From now on you must be in Canada for 2 out of 5 years every day to remain a PR.

Okay, if i apply June of 2019. my PR card expired more than 8 months by that time it will be 2years and 6 months. It’s good to apply renewal?

Sure anytime after 730 days in 5 years s technically possible. Just trying to avoid secondary review if possible since it takes so long.

What’s that mean secondary review??

You can be asked to provide evidence of when you were in Canada. It can take a long time.

Do you have any need to renew your residence permit right away? If I was in your shoes I would just stay 3 years to be on the safe side and avoid the voluntary review as canuck78 mentioned
