You have to spend 2 of 5 years in Canada.
Once you have your PR card, you can travel in and out of Canada as often as you like. (You can do this even without a PR card, but getting a temporary travel document is a bit complicated).
Thanks Istari for your expert advice.
For the PR card, I read it takes around 30-45 days. If someone is not in Canada when PR card is issued, how can he/she collect the PR card? Can one give address of another(native) country for delivering PR card?

Also regarding the IELTS score, my IELTS score(I gave in March 2015) will expire in next year March(2017). So if my application is in progress by that time, do I need to give IELTS again? And what if my new IELTS score are lower than previous score? I guess as with provincial nomination my total points are close to 990, so in worst case drop in IELTS score should not matter.

You must provide a Canadian residential address.
If you're not in Canada, you will need to arrange for the card to be sent to someone in Canada, and have them forward it to you.

I believe your IELTS results only need to be valid until your eAPR is submitted.

Thanks again. If a submit the eAPR with letter of explanations( I will have to provide them for my wife's PCC and medical), and IELTS score expire before I am able to submit the actual documents, will the eAPR will be deemed complete?

Also how is the usual validity of provincial nomination, and the expiry date of nomination is calculated from the date nomination was given or from the date it was accepted?

Sorry for so many questions one after another, and thanks for being so patient and helpful.

Sorry, I actually don't know the answer to either of those questions.
Perhaps a senior will know.

Hi there,
Just a quick question: What happens if your profile is just about to expire after you've accepted the ITA? I presume once you accept the ITA, the profile validity becomes irrelevant as you move to the next phase of 60 days' time for application submission after which your profile is locked. Please correct if I am wrong.
Thanks.

There is no such thing as "accepting ITA". Once you receive ITA, you have 3 options:
- decline the ITA
- submit your eAPR within the 60 day limit
- wait for the 60 days to pass, and your ITA expires.

Your profile validity only becomes irrelevant once you've submitted your eAPR. If your profile expires during the 60 days (before you've submitted your eAPR), you lose your ITA, and have to create a new EE profile and re-enter the pool.

Though you do not see any IMM document in the checklist, if you are a PNP applicant, then you may as well submit Schedule 4 as part of LOE, it is a one page document. If not submitted during eAPR, they will request for it later.
