Move to Canada once PR is in hand

[canada.dream1]

one of my friend was saying that there is a condition that candidate must move to Canada with in 3-6 months once PR is in hand.
Can you please share more or confirm this information?
I would appreciate your help.

you have to "land" to canada and get PR status once you get your visa because your PR visa is only for 1 year from the medical test. So if you get your visa after 8 months from your medicals, you only got 3 months to "land" in canada to get your PR status.

You can then stay out of canada within the 2 out of 5 year rule which means you have to be in canada within 2 years in any 5-year period to maintain your status as PR in canada.

Albularyo, thanks a lot for replying, I was not aware of this fact, it is very helpful.

Can you please share your view on my case (thinking);
if everything goes positive, and I get PR, can I come to Canada to full fill the rule, and come back to India.
I want to search job from India; I am working with major software company in India & I am sure that I can get job via job sites;
but it may take 3-6 months (in worst case, I think). Once I have job in my hand in Canada, then move to Canada.

Is it with in rule if I (& my family) visit Canada & come back to India in 15 days (& I search my job from India).

Please reply.

Regards.

Yes you can, but keep in your mind that you will have to live in Canada 2 years within 5 years to maintain your PR status valid.


I hope it helps.
