Hi! So I am a permanent resident of Canada since 2014. I lived there for 4 years and decided to go back in the Philippines last 2018 to finish my college. I will be graduating on 2022. I am worried because since 2018, I only went back to canada once a year. And it says that in order for me to remain my status, I have to be in Canada for 730 days
Will I lose my status?

So technically I wont be able to fulfill that 730 days in that 5 rolling years. Will I still be able to go back in Canada without losing my residency status? Are they not going to let me fly to the borders of Canada?

You need a valid PR card to fly to Canada. Your other option is to fly to the US and enter by land. When entering, you can be reported by CBSA for failing to meet the RO, resulting in loss of status. Your chances of being reported are higher if you don't have a valid PR card. You should have applied for Canadian citizenship.

You will be able to enter but as I said, can be reported for failing to meet the RO.

You have been asked these questions a few times in the past. The answer hasn’t changed.
