hey Guys, I just wanted to ask if having an extensive stay out of canada can cause my application to sponsor wife and kid to be denied? I recently got a job this year afer I returned to canada to show proof that I can sustain them while here in canada, and I have always maintained a Canada home address all the time I was away (over 365 days) also. Do I need to worry or I can proceed with the sponsorship application.
I will appreciate your feedbacks. thanks.
If you’re a PR then you can onky travel on short trips outside Canada (2 or 3 weeks). As a citizen it’s not an issue.

Please where is this stated, that a PR can only make short trips of 2 to 3 weeks? Is there a know case where a Sponsor's application has been denied for this reason?

Yeah it’s in the offical application guide that a PR has to stay in Canada from the point an application is submitted until the PA lands.

This is a known fact, don’t waste your time looking for loopholes. You’ll be risking your application if you are physically away from Canada for longer than a few weeks. See this example:

I think in the end it's a case by case basis. Here's someone else who was also way for 6months and got approved.

Forget about cases, just because someone drove 200 miles per hour on the highway doesn't mean it's legal. If they didn't get a ticket doesn't mean it's legal.
The law says you can't, it's up to you to risk speeding.
