If you are convicted of a crime, you can lose your PR and if you lose your PR, you can't apply for citizenship.
You don't lose your PR just for being audited. However, if you are found guilty of tax fraud and go to prison, immigration may revoke your PR and send you packing.

so who do I have to believe , ll I lose PR for being audited or not ? Leon ? Im deadly scared
everything is an early stage now, I ll definitely try to negotiate with CRA to avoid going to court and possible criminal conviction.
Newtone,no, I have not misrepresented myself, so that isnt a problem.

You can not lose PR for being audited just like you can not lose PR merely for having been accused of a crime. You would have to be convicted of a crime before you could lose your PR and even then they take into consideration how serious the crime was, if it was violent crime, are you self-supporting, do you have skills, is your family in Canada, is there a war situation in your home country etc. etc. You can read about this here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/enf/enf05-eng.pdf
However, to avoid hassle, don't commit crimes. Simple as that.

I agree with Leon.
Your PR won't be lost just because of an audit.
However if that audit uncovers illegal activity that leads to a conviction - that's an entirely different story.

no, i have never been convicted of any other crime anywhere. I don't even drink. have a clean record,never been in any fight with anyone.
yes, I have been in Canada for past 7 years , never went back to my home country, because its life-threatening for me. I know a lot of people claim that, but in my case it really IS life-death matter. I just made a mistake, other 6 returns were filed on time and everything was ok. have been PR for the past 2 years. Im SO stressed, its hard to even sleep.
Thanks to both of you

If you made a mistake, I doubt you will be convicted. It depends on what you did.
I once forgot to declare a check that was paid to me by my union as benefits. I didn't even get audited, CRA just noticed my mistake and fixed it.

Thank you Leon, It was something like that, talked with the lawyer and he doesn't think, its a problem. I now have to wait what CRA has to say.
Newtone, I don't think sharing my story ll save me, if they think that I did something wrong. at one point or another, I (or whoever made a mistake) still ll be held accountable.I just really can't go back to my homeland that's why its extremely important, to have a clean record. you couldnt give me a million dollars, to commit any type of crime. I hope they ll consider it as a mistake and correct it.
