Physical Presence Time Calculation

[Nameer khan]

Temporary resident:
(Study permit):
Sept 1st 2018 - Feb 28th 2020

Temporary resident:
(Work Permit)
Mar 1st 2020 - Jun 8th 2022


Permanent resident:
Jun 9th 2022 - Jun 9th 2027



I’ll be submitting my citizenship application somewhere around May 10th 2027.



Will I be able to count max 1 year towards physical presence time from the time which I have spent as a temporary resident for citizenship?

By 2027 because I won’t be able to complete physical presence time before that. As I travel a lot outside of canada due to business and personal commitment.

You can only claim the days you spent in Canada in the 5 years immediately prior to your application.
So, if you mail your application something like 4 years and 11 months after becoming a PR, that won't leave many days you can claim...

If I’m unable to complete the time, can I renew my PR status?

PR status is 2 years out of 5. It's more lenient.
