You must live in Canada for 3 years to qualify for citizenship. Two of these years must be after you have become a PR. One year can be before you are a PR (while in Canada as a student or worker or visitor) but these days are only counted as half credits. Meaning that you have to spend two years in Canada before you become a PR to get credit for 1 year towards citizenship.
