Hello, I got invited to apply for PGP this year. I haven't applied yet, but will be in Canada when I'll apply.
I am a PR, who travels a lot for work related purposes (I can get letters from both my department chair, and the receiving institution), including internationally, for some ~3 months per year. Travel is an integral part of my job -- I have many collaborative projects in the US -- and although not "required" in the strict sense (as for e.g. truck drivers), not travelling internationally for long would easily lead to unsatisfactory performances (since it leads to halting most of my projects). My job in Canada is a permanent one, i.e. with no explicit end date, but subject to performance review, and unsatisfactory performances can lead to troubles. I also maintain a (rented) principal residence in Canada.
How much time are we generally allowed to travel internationally for work and still being considered "residing in Canada"?
Thanks!
