More to maintain clarity in regards to commentary intended to address the OP's situation and distinguish off-topic tangents . . . (recognizing the futility of battling windmills).
So what? I suggest you read the CRA webpage. We were talking about why someone can be a tax resident while not residing in Canada.
If anything you if you want to argue, why don't you quote the other poster?
"We were talking about why someone can be a tax resident while not residing in Canada."
Maybe YOU were, OFF-Topic . . . but to quote "
the other poster," the one setting the agenda for the topic, as in the OP, as in the questions being discussed here:
1- What proof i can attach while applying for renewal to show my cohabitation with my Candian spouse in Pakistan? She is housewife and doesn't do any job.
2- Will the taxes filed by both of us as residential in Canada in last years, have any effect on my applications?
3- How much time it could take me to get card when staying in canada after next month?
Meanwhile, these same questions have been addressed in some depth in the other topic where the OP also posed them. Along with cautionary observations acknowledging that the difference between "
being with" versus "
going with" can have an impact on a PR relying on Residency Obligation credit for days "
accompanying" a Canadian citizen spouse outside Canada.
"I suggest you read the CRA webpage."
Well, we are into that season when, unfortunately, I spend far too much time navigating CRA information. So, thanks for the suggestion but it was unnecessary; been there, done that, doing that, still in progress. Happens every year. The
joys of owning one's own business (meaning the
not-so-joyous but rather tedious accounting duties that come with being self-employed). Otherwise, however, that has zero to do with the OP's situation or questions.
To be clear, the information provided online by CRA will not illuminate anything at all about how this PR can prove they meet the PR Residency Obligation based on accompanying their Canadian citizen spouse in Pakistan.
"If anything you if you want to argue . . . "
Not sure what this means, the hypothetical's premise rather oddly phrased.
There is no argument, nonetheless, but rather just pointing out how things work: No matter how many significant ties a PR has in Canada, they will not support credit toward meeting the RO for days the PR was
NOT IN Canada. Period.
Thus, for the OP and the situation posed here, the subject being discussed in this topic, having significant ties in Canada (be that a home or other ties warranting filing a Canadian tax return) does NOT help, and as I was attempting to caution the OP, might even invite concerns there has been an effort to manipulate appearances. Perhaps I should have been more explicit and further stated (at the price of an even longer post) this means it could compromise the OP's credibility in the perception of the total stranger bureaucrats who determine whether the PR qualifies for the accompanying a Citizen spouse exception to the RO. Never good to have one's credibility in question.
Nonetheless, just to be clear, again
no amount of significant ties in Canada is going to give a PR RO credit for days they were NOT present IN Canada . . . even though significant ties to Canada can be supporting evidence in some other contexts (such as supporting other evidence of residing in Canada, for periods the PR was actually IN Canada, or to support making a H&C case for keeping PR status despite failing to comply with the RO). Which is to say that maintaining a residence in Canada, and likewise filing tax returns in Canada, will NOT give the OP here a single day's credit toward the RO for the periods of time the OP has been outside Canada.
For reference, again the OP's situation has been addressed at some length here:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/applying-for-renewal-of-pr-1095-days-absent-while-accompaying-citizen-wife.466928/#post-10723457 where, in regards to what proof to submit, the OP was referred to the appendix in the PR card application guide, "Situation B" in particuar:
Foremost, in response to your questions in particular, if you make a PR card application, or an application for a PR Travel Document, follow the instructions in the Guide, in Appendix A, in the section for Situation B. Accompanying a Canadian citizen outside Canada. Guide for PR card application is here:
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5445-applying-permanent-resident-card-card-first-application-replacement-renewal-change-gender-identifier.html#appendixA (guide for PR TD application is very similar). In addition to proof of spouse's Canadian citizenship and proof of marriage relationship, what is mostly needed is proof that both resided at the same address; that is, evidence showing you lived at the residential address where you have been living, and similarly evidence your spouse was living at that same address.
And also see post by
@Tubsmagee above, offering a sample of evidence showing the couple have been living together.
