I landed in Toronto, Canada in March 2011. Luckily, I found a job here as a high school teacher instantly. However, there is no saving, u know well. Now I am planning to move to Saudi Arabia(KSA) and have got a very 'very' good offer handy from a university. I'm planning to mover to KSA in September 2013. By that time I would have stayed here in Canada almost 2 years and 6 months. SO I am short of 6 month before I apply for Canadian Passport.
My first question is.....if I come back to Canada for 1 month every year during summer vacation, and fulfill the 3 years requirement, would I be eligible to apply for citizenship after 6 years? I understand that I will have to take PR extension after 5 years.
Secondly, I have got another offer from a Poly-technique College which works in collaboration of a Canadian company. (This Canadian company is not a recruiting company rather it is a kind of sister company of that Saudi Poly-technique College. According to CIC website, (Reference: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomers/about-pr.asp#keep_status)
Time spent outside Canada may also count towards meeting the residency obligation (for Citizenship Applicants) if you are:
•accompanying your Canadian citizen spouse or common-law partner;
•an employee of, or under contract to, a Canadian business or the public service of Canada or of a province and you are assigned on a full-time basis to:
•a position outside Canada;
•an affiliated enterprise outside Canada; or
•a client of the Canadian business or the public service outside Canada;
My second question is.....I feel I am unable to understand this easy English passage, would you please explain it in your own and simple words
PS: I have only few day remaining to inform my employers about my availability. Would appreciate, if you could, reply at your earliest convenience.)
