How many years for citizenship?

[James John]

Hello,
To get citizenship should I live for 4/6 years or 3/5? Many people told me it changed to 3/5 but I am not sure yet. Also when I apply to citizenship how could I prove to them that I have lived for the required number of years?
Thank you

there are 2 threads that talk about this.... http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-im...e-hoc-and-the-senate-facts-only.488982/page-9 and http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-im...threads/bill-c-6-senate-stage.461681/page-393

but to answer your question: no, 3/5 is not in place yet.

to prove you lived the required number of years you will have to keep track of all your trips out of Canada.

I have a small error on my PR name. When I apply to citizenship can I fix my name or I have to fix my name on my PR before applying for citizenship.
Thanks

fix Pr card first.. you should have done it as soon as you had gotten your card... it is written on the letter they send along with your card...
