KEY FACTS:
(1) Are you currently located in Canada?
(2) Is your primary residence in Canada?
(3) Is your employment based in Canada and your time abroad, now, due to going abroad on more or less discreet assignments for a genuinely Canadian business?
If the answer to ALL these is yes, my GUESS (no one here can reliably forecast individual outcomes EXCEPT when there is an obvious, unavoidable reason for a negative outcome, and even then the outcome is not certain), my guess is that you have a fair chance of this ultimately going well. BUT AS OTHERS HAVE CAUTIONED, the timeline can be significantly longer than it is for routinely processed PRC applications and, thus, if your PR card is expiring and for your job you need to travel, and thus need a valid PR card (which is quite likely, although there are alternatives, such as obtaining a PR Travel Document while abroad, or returning to Canada via land through a PoE on the Canada/U.S. border), there could be a practical problem.
If the answer to one or more of the above is NOT YES, it is still possible things will go OK. But that becomes a more difficult scenario to evaluate and would depend a lot on a number of very particular details in your situation, so it would be a lot more difficult to offer any semblance of a reasonable guess.
For example, if the answer to (1) and (2) is YES, but no for (3), AGAIN DEPENDING on a number of particular factors, there should be a fair chance you will NOT lose PR status based on H&C reasons, but of course in addition to the impact of numerous, variable factors, you would have to effectively advocate H&C reasons for keeping status, and if the application itself is denied or if in the meantime you are reported as inadmissible (for failing to comply with the PR Residency Obligations), you would need to pursue an APPEAL, for which you probably need the assistance of a LAWYER.
There are, nonetheless, many variables indicated. There are many specific facts which can have a big impact on how things go for you.
For example, if your employment is something which has been set up or arranged through a "consultant," that could suggest a range of factors particular to your case which could be problematic. I do not mean to pursue this tangent or delve into its nuances, but there are many, many cases in which consultant-arranged schemes facilitating PRs primarily employed abroad which are very much just that:
SCHEMES, meaning schemes which will not work if and when IRCC discerns what it is.
In other words: there are many variables which will have significant influence in how things go for you. Your situation could be simple. Or it could be very complicated. Sorting out an individual case like this is well beyond what we can do in this forum (for one thing, this is not an appropriate venue for sharing the kind of information which is necessary to reliably evaluate the situation).
I would suggest, however, that if you have been relying on a consultant so far, especially a consultant who has set up your employment, and definitely if you have used a consultant who is NOT properly registered as an authorized consultant with IRCC, you might want to serious consider consulting with a reputable, experienced IMMIGRATION LAWYER about your situation.
FURTHER OBSERVATIONS:
As
@zardoz emphasized in the other thread (source of first quote above), how things will go will depend a great deal on the particular facts in your case, depending on what the facts are as determined by IRCC.
That said, we know many of the key factors, including risk factors, and while no one here can reliably forecast the outcome in an individual's case, we can identify key indicators which can suggest whether the odds are good or the odds are NOT good.
The employed abroad by Canadian business exception/credit tends to be very tricky.
The accompanying a Canadian citizen spouse abroad exception/credit can be a LITTLE tricky for some, BUT at the very least getting the credit requires the PR to be living-together (cohabiting) abroad with the citizen spouse. Potential snags in this have been discussed at length in other topics . . .
but for a PR who was living in Canada with a Canadian citizen spouse and they subsequently are living abroad together, this still appears to be a SAFE credit PRs can rely on . . . again, for time the couple are actually living together abroad.
Just the fact of being married to a Canadian does
NOT qualify for credit.
THUS: If your spouse is not living abroad with you, there is NO accompanying-a-Canadian-citizen-spouse credit. Even if she accompanies you occasionally abroad, odds are those days together abroad will NOT get credit.
BUT WHAT JUMPS OUT MOST in your posts is the question: are you
CURRENTLY present in Canada and, relative to your employment, primarily based in Canada? Or are you primarily located abroad (and, in effect, coming to Canada to stay with family when you can)?
If you obtained your current employment while YOU were physically present in Canada, and even though that employment requires you to go abroad often and for extended periods of time, IF YOUR position itself is primarily located in Canada and the time abroad are individual assignments abroad, there is a good chance that these trips will count, will be credited time toward PR Residency Obligation compliance, BUT ONLY IF THE EMPLOYER ALSO QUALIFIES . . .
Again, this credit is typically VERY TRICKY, and many conscientious participants here steer wide of offering opinions about this credit EXCEPT to the extent there are more or less obvious factors indicating that qualifying for the credit is NOT AT ALL LIKELY. Which, by the way, tends to characterize the majority of situations queried in this forum. A very high percentage of queries in this forum are about being employed by a Canadian business BUT it is for a position abroad rather than being employed IN CANADA (and being temporarily assigned abroad), which will more or less obviously
NOT count. Another common scenario is the Canadian business which is essentially a Canadian business on paper, but the business itself is not in practice so much a Canadian business, which will often mean the employer does NOT qualify.
That is, we can rather easily identify many if not most scenarios in which the employed-abroad-by-a-Canadian-business credit is NOT available even if the PR is working abroad in the employ of an ostensibly Canadian company. It is far more difficult to recognize scenarios giving rise to confidence that the credit is actually available.
The employed-abroad-by-a-Canadian-business credit is so tricky it sometimes seems that the only PRs who could qualify for the credit are PRs with enough time in Canada to meet the PR RO without the credit, since qualifying for the credit essentially requires the PR to be BASED in Canada. Note for example, truckers, sales representatives, and airline personnel who are based in Canada but regularly travel abroad for their work (the trucker who makes regularly long-haul runs into the U.S. from a Canadian base; the sales representative whose office is in Canada but who regularly travels to clients abroad for a week or two or three at a time, or the Canada Air airline employee working international flights from a base in Canada), will typically qualify for the credit, but they will also typically be in Canada enough, in between assignments, to meet the minimum RO without the credit.
Anyway, hopefully this will help you focus on some of the more important aspects of your situation and get a better idea of your situation.
In the meantime: if you are issued a 44(1) Report, a Departure or Removal Order, or the PR card application is denied, you will need to make a timely appeal, focus on making an H&C case to justify keeping PR status, and probably obtain the assistance of a lawyer to do so. Obviously, IRCC can make decisions which could, in turn, compel you to identify your personal priorities and makes decisions about your future depending on what YOUR priorities are.
