Hi
I am a Canadian Permanent Resident but I did not stay much in Canada ever since I got my PR in Nov 2005. The total number of days I stayed in Canada hardly comes around 4 months. My work is based out in USA and I carry H1 status in the US. I need some information about the duration that is permitted for PR holders who stay outside Canada. My PR card shows that its valid this NOV 2010, although my concern is that I have been staying outside canada for nearly 22 Months now which is 1 year and 10 months. I want to know if I stay more than 2 years outside canada without entering even once into Canada will my PR card be still valid or the Canadian government will cancel my PR ?
Please advice.
Thanks
