    Unable to meet the 730 days residence requirement due to Covid-19

    @scylla - applied and rejected. I guess the ultimate way is to have a one way trip as you said. Unfortunately, I still need to put on the table (my reply to @canuck78). I am open to hearing more ideas, keep them coming.

    Thanks @dpenabill. This is excellent response. How can I pro-actively present evidence of the extenuating circumstances if I know I will not be able to meet the RO as a result of Covid-19? Is there any department or e-mail address I can write to and present my evidence pro-actively while I...
