How long can I stay outside Canada after getting a PR card

[kashif0116]

Hi, I applied for my PR Card on 13th August 2010 when I landed in Canada. I travelled outside Canada on 29th August. I received my PR Card as well during that time. How long I can stay outside Canada.

Thanks

You can stay as long as you want if you are a dependent child and accompanying your Canadian parents or PR parents who maintain their residency obligation.

Many Thanks!!

Does that mean if I come after three years and start staying in Canada, Will I be able to apply for Canadian Nationality, if so after how long?

Thanks
