Thank you @abbas.pasha for such quick response. I have a situation where I have to leave Canada to support my ailing parents and I don't know ho many years I may need to spend overseas before I can move back to Canada. I plan to do so after I submit my citizenship application and wanted to make...

Hi, could you please share your experience and whether you were able to move overseas after applying for citizenship?

Hello @priyankbhojak88 thanks for helping everyone with such great details. One doubt I have regarding your parents application is that you mentioned in your first post that there was no proof of funds submitted from your parents side and you only attached 10k bank balance from your side...

Hi @canuck78 Sorry it has been a while since you advised me and we had to delay the process for some reason. We are now revisiting the visa again and I see Supervisa takes 50 days compared to 135 days for visitor visa. However, my only concern now is the 1 year medical insurance requirement...

Hi, thanks for replying. I was wondering if there are similar cases I could learn from. It's just that Supervisa is difficult to get and has a lot of processing time.

Hello, I am planning to apply for a tourist visa for my in-laws but they don't have good bank balance or property under their name to show. I have sufficient funds and property both back home and here in Canada along with a well paying job in Canada and I will be supporting them for all their...

@armoured @Naturgrl Thank you both for your comments. I understand what you mean. This clause is for the spouse and not for the person himself/herself. I actually found another page which clearly mentions the criteria under "Working for a Canadian Business or the Canadian Government...

No I am based in Canada and will continue to work from our Canada office only. It is just that for some personal reasons I might need to take leave and be away from Canada for a month or so (while still being a part of the Canada office). I may take a few days holiday and work remotely for a few...

@Naturgrl I am just curious to know about the time spent on leave abroad. Anyways, regarding remote work, is it mentioned somewhere that it won't be counted even if one is employed full time by a Canadian business?

Adding another link below which says time spent on vacation abroad will be counted as well towards PR status if employed by Canadian business. https://www.ackahlaw.com/news/how-to-maintain-permanent-residence-in-canada-while-living-overseas Please let me know if this is actually the case and if...

Hi everyone, I am employed by a Canadian business in Canada and wanted to know if I go overseas for vacation or work from overseas for a short period, will that time be counted towards my PR status (residency requirement of 730 days)...

Thanks again. Got it! Someone told me you need to make at least 3 income-tax returns apart from the physical residency requirements so thought about availing this opportunity to file one.

@YVR123 thanks for replying. I can't do so even if I wish to? Was thinking it would help later towards getting citizenship.

Hello everyone, hope you all are keeping safe. I landed in Canada this February and have been working remotely for my company abroad. Wanted to check if I can file taxes (for year 2020 I guess)? I believe I won't have to pay any taxes as I was not even in Canada last year and no income was being...

I have been on hold for 2 days now! 3-4times it has been 4 hrs on hold a time but still haven't got to speak to anyone.

@Wiggy you mean this number [1-613-830-2992 (collect outside of North America)] right? I have been calling this number from Skype on laptop.

I am yet to make any booking even after trying continuously for 2 days now. 2-3 times I was connected for 4 hours but still nothing. Really worried now. Guys any idea what happens if one is unable to get a booking before boarding?

@Amm2020 even with skype laptop, my call drops every 15-20 minutes. Were you facing no such issues with Skype? I have the free trial account.
