Dear all,
I have landed in sept 2014. I received my PR card in Jan 2015 and will be expired in Jan 2020. I was back to my hometown, China for work a month after i landed and recently I am planning to move back to Canada and obtain my citizenship...
I have heard so many comments in regards to the physical presence requirement, due to C-6, I understand that I have to stay for 2 in 5 years to renew my PR card and 3 in 5 years to apply for citizenship.
However, recently i have received a postgraduate offer in China and it will take 2 years to complete. I wonder if i can complete my degree in Sept 2018 and move back... will I miss the requirement ? :-\
I have heard that as long as I enter Canada before my PR card expires, which is Jan 2020 and stay for 3 years, I can still apply for citizenship...
kindly confirm if i could do this or I have to come back before sept 2016 and stay for 3 years without leaving Canada in between to obtain my citizenship.....
Thank you very much in advance... Greatly appreciated ! I am so confused :'(
