Dear pmm i could not understand your reply
now i tell you my situation in detail
I was granted first Pr card on 15-12-2002 for up to 15-12-2007
Then in Dec-2007 after applying for renewal i had to come back my home country.so i was without pr card.
frome canadian embassy of my home country i applied for a TRavel document
the visa officer checked my passports and every thing and he found that i have accumulated 830 ( in different parts) days out of 5 year period (15-12-2002 TO 15-12-2007)
Hence visa officer declared that i have mer residency test and grant me a R-1 visa valid for six months on March-2008
I went canada on 27-april 2008 and got my pr card which was renewed.
i lived in canada upto 15-12 2008 and the came back my home country
Now since 15-12-2008 i am in my home country and planing to go back canada on 20-06-2009.My new Pr card expiry date is 15-12-2012,

1. please explain in this way if i am maintaining my residency obligation or i have lost it.
2.when i will appear on 20-06-2009 at port of entry weather i will be fine or in trouble.

If you became PR more than 5 years ago, you need to have been in Canada for 730 days in the last 5 year period, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5445EA.asp That will be the period from 20-06-2004 to 20-06-2009. If you have 730 days or more, you are ok. If you have less, you have lost your PR.
