Hi members,
I am applying for renewal of my permanent resident card with less the residency time required. My total days in Canada comes to 512 days however when i first landed to Canada my wife was residing in my home country with me. I stayed in Canada for 2 weeks and went back to reside with my wife back home who was a Canadian citizen. We lived together there for 2 years and them came back to Canada. After that i visited my home country 8 times without my wife for long periods and spent more than 1200 days there. I would like to know that the first time I went back and resided with my wife in my home country would that period be considered as days spent in Canada?
I know that if i accompany my wife to travel outside Canada that time is considered as time spent in Canada but my confusion is that I didn't accompany my wife she was actually residing there already. I would like to know is it the same thing? I would highly appreciate for a quick reply or plz share your thoughts from your previous experiences. I also request all the senior, hero and VIP members to reply to my query ASAP...THANKS
