PR Status Obligation

[chhavisikri]

Hello All

I have a quick question:
I came to India in March 2017.This year in November 2019, my PR status will expire. My question is if I go to Canada before November 2019 to retain my PR status, for how long do I have to stay there in Canada? I do want to mention that between 2017 and now I've been to Canada for 15 days in between too (2018).
Please help!

Assuming that you got your PR in 2015. If between 2015 and till expiry you was in Canada in total 730 days you will get your renewal easily.

Just a word of caution....if you did acquire your 730 days in the first 3 years, once you do renew your PR card, those days will start dropping off after 5 year anniversary of your landing date. If you leave Canada again after renewing, you could find yourself under investigation for failing to meet RO in short order and every time you enter Canada.
