Hello,
Firstly thank you all for the relevant information.
I will be applying to renew my PR soon. Based on the insights from this forum, I have managed to calculate the number of days I have stayed in Canada as below:
1. 797 in case working for a Canadian business abroad is counted (trade shows and events).
2. 771 in case working for a Canadian business is not counted (only 26 days of trade shows and events abroad)
3. (In the 797 days and 771 days above, I have not included the day I left Canada and the day I reached back to Canada as I believe that is counted towards RO). However, if they are not going to count these days, then the 797 days (point 1) reduce to 783 days and the 771 days (point 2) reduce to 759 days.
Hence, as per above I would be above the 730 days minimum requirement (I know it will be cutting it close but I will not be able to wait longer due to some emergency circumstances that are unavoidable).
My question-
1. PR renewal form says that if the applicant is out of Canada for more than 1095 days (which is not my case) section D (which includes business travel/enployment) needs to be filled. In my particular circumstance although I will be above the 730 days minimum requirement, should I fill the section D (as it will gain me 26 valuable days). Will this in anyways help me avoid secondary review.
2. If my application goes to secondary review and I have to travel for 10 days (emergency unavoidable), am I able to apply for a PRTD from my home country (India) to return to Canada?
Thank you for your wonderful help.
Best,
