RO rule has not changed. What armoured wrote still apply.I think I saw somewhere that this doesn't apply anymore. It is always 5 years back from the day you submit the application (Given you can apply for renewal after you card expires)

read the instructions!!! Is say NODont i need financial evaluation form for spousal visa if we dont have dependent like children?
I am pretty sure that is not the case; quoting below from official Canada Justice Law Website:RO rule has not changed. What armoured wrote still apply.
You're pretty sure WHAT is not the case? What are you saying has changed?I am pretty sure that is not the case

So basically if you want to renew the card before it expires (therefore you have been a PR for less than 5 years) then they look at the start data as your landing date; however, If you decide to wait and renew after expiry of your PR, then they will only look at the 5 years preceding the date of submission.
Yes exactly so all I am saying is if you renew past the expiry date of your PR, even if it is your first time, they look 5 years back from the day you submitted; not the day you landedYou're pretty sure WHAT is not the case? What are you saying has changed?
The part you cited above is what I said. Verbiage about the card renewal is irrelevant - residency obligation compliance applies as of any date of examination (including when applying for PR card renewal).
This is exactly what we've said from the beginning of this circular discussion.Yes exactly so all I am saying is if you renew past the expiry date of your PR, even if it is your first time, they look 5 years back from the day you submitted; not the day you landed
Exactly what we all said... nothing has changed. It's a rolling 5 years to meet RO once you've past the 5 years mark from your landing date. That has nothing to do with the expiry of the PR card BTW.Yes exactly so all I am saying is if you renew past the expiry date of your PR, even if it is your first time, they look 5 years back from the day you submitted; not the day you landed
I thought you meant that they look at your landing date if you are renewing for first time regardless of when you submit the application. Wanted to clarify that they look 5 years back from date of submission if you are applying after 5 years mark from landing date (given they don't exactly force you to renew at a specific time). It might be useful for someone who is very close to not meeting residency obligation at 5 year mark so they can gain a few extra days before applyingThis is exactly what we've said from the beginning of this circular discussion.
So why do you keep saying "I'm pretty sure that is not the case" and that "something else has changed"?
It doesn't matter if it's your FIRST or SECOND or FIFTH time renewing. If you tried to fill in the application, you know what are the days that count toward the RO. It's 5 years from the date the applicantion is signed. If someone needs a few more days to meet RO, then they should stay in Canada and wait until they meet RO before they apply for renewal. You can live in Canada with an expired card (if they already have all their other IDs).I thought you meant that they look at your landing date if you are renewing for first time regardless of when you submit the application.

No-one meant that, no-one wrote that. Don't confuse things by saying other people are wrong or that something has changed.I thought you meant that they look at your landing date if you are renewing for first time regardless of when you submit the application.
