Hey everyone I am confused with the physical presence calculator and just wondering is there any way I can calculate my presence in Canada. I Would mention all the details below
DATE OF ENTRY TO CANADA: 21 DEC 2017
DATE OF FINISHING STUDY: 24 AUG 2019
WORK PERMIT APPLIED : 17 OCT 2019
WORK PERMIT ISSUED: 15 JAN 2020
I WAS THERE IN CANADA FOR THE WHOLE YEAR OF 2020 AFTER THE WORK PERMIT WAS ISSUED. AFTER THAT, I STARTED DRIVING TRUCK TO UNITED STATES AS A LOMG HAUL TRUCK DRIVER AND MOST OF THE TIMES I WAS IN UNITED STATES FOR THE YEAR 2021. I WOULD BE HOME HARDLY 8 OR 9 DAYS A MONTH UNTIL JANUARY 2022.
PR FILE APPLIED: 14 JULY 2021
DATE OF VISIT TO INDIA: 20 JAN 2022
DATE OF REENTRY TO CANADA 28 MAR 2022
AFTER THAT, I WOULD GO TO UNITED STATES AGAIN AS PER MY JOB DUTIES BUT NOT THAT OFTEN FOR THIS TIME. MAYBE 15 DAYS IN CANADA FOR APRIL, MAY UNTIL JUNE 15. I FLEW BACK TO INDIA AS A FAMILY EMERGENCY ON 17 JUNE 2022.
DATE OF VISIT TO INDIA: 17 JUNE 2022
DATE OF RE ENTRY TO CANADA: 14 SEP 2022
AFTER THAT I WOULD BE AGAIN GOING BACK TO UNITED STATES AS PER MY WORK. AS LIKE, 10 DAYS A MONTH UNTIL JAN 10 2023.
EXTENSION OF WORK PERMIT APPLIED: 24 SEP 2022
PREVIOUS WORK PERMIT EXPIRED ON: 15 JAN 2023
THEN I DIDNT TRAVELLED TO UNITED STATES AFTER JANUARY 10 2023 UNTIL MARCH 16 2023.
ISSUED EXTENSION WORK PERMIT: 8 FEB 2023
GOT PR PORTAL: 28 MARCH 2023
COPR: 14 APRIL 2O23
AFTERWARDS I WOULD GO TO UNITED STATES EVERY DAY AND COME BACK WITHIN 7 HOURS WHICH I HAVE GOT TO KNOW COUNTS AS DAY IN CANADA IF ABSENCE IS NO MORE THAN 24 HOURS OUTSIDE OF CANADA. SO, FROM MARCH 16 TO DEC 26 2023.
DATE OF VISIT TO INDIA: 27 DEC 2023
DATE OF COMING BACK: 14 FEB 2024
THEN AFTER UNITL TODAY AS OF TODAYS DATE NOVEMBER 14 2024 I NEVER WENT TO UNITED STATES.
COULD SOMEBODY PLS HELP ME TO COUNT MY DAYS LEFT FOR APPLYING CITIZENSHIP?
AND ONE MORE THING I HAVE HEARD THAT THEY COUNT FROM THE PAST FIVE YEARS OF THE DATE YOUR ARE APPLYING FOR THE CITIZENSHIP. SO AS A TEMPORARY RESIDENT ONE DAY IN CANADA IS COUNTED AS 0.5 CREDIT. IS IT TRUE?
ANY SORT OF HELP OR ADVICE WOULD BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED. PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME AND REPLY TO MY THREAD. SO I GET TO KNOW HOW FAR MY BOAT IS FROM THE SHORE.
THANK YOU

Did you try calculating it yourself first?

It's your responsibility to do the calculation, using the tool given by @forw.jane.
If you have a specific question like "do days between the end of a permit and the beginning of another count?" (yes, if you applied for the new permit before the older expired), sure, but it's no-one's job to open the tool and enter all your visits for you.

And please, no caps.
