My Wife and I got the first PR card in Feb 2005. We already renewed our PR in July 2009.
I had worked with Canadian firm in Vancouver since Feb 1,2008 on a- full-time basis and the company sent me to work in Asia (I accompanied my wie with me as well) from April 25,2008 to end of March 2011 which was the last day I worked for this Canadian company.
During April 2011-May 2012 my wife and I spent time outside Canada and just return to Vancouver in late May 2012.
My questions are
1. Can my wife and I count number of days as residence of Canada during the period of July 2009(current PR issued) to March 2011 (last day of working with Canadian firm)
2. Are we ,my wife and I, eligible to renew our existing PR in August 2013 (about one year before the existing PR cards will be expired)
3. Will our days spent outside Canada during the period of April 2011-May 2012 be deducted from the calculation of number of minimum days required (730 days) for PR renewal in 2013 or not. This is because we are not clear about how to calculate number of days as resisdence to be entitle to renew our PR cards.
Thanks for everyone who can help us clarify this issues.
