Very complicated question any help would be appreciated.
Moved to Canada in March 2021 on a tourist visa then applied for inland spousal sponsorship and OWP in May 2021. My visa expired in February 2022 but was under implied status due to the fact that i had the OWP in process. I received my OWP in May 2022 but still waiting for PR.
Question is, does all my time since March 2021 count as half a day for Citizenship later, or when my visa expired the counting stopped as well until the OWP was issued?

It counts.
