Hi guys, I am suffering from a problem with my canadian citizenship.

As my home country does not allow dual citizenship, and due to work purpose, I will go back to my home country occasionally.(one or two times every year, one or two weeks each time)

Then here comes the problem, how can I resume my PR status after renouncing citizenship cuz I will continue work and live Canada?

Thanks in advance

If you renounce your Canadian citizenship, you start all over again from the very beginning, as a Foreign National with no status in Canada.

You will not be able to renounce citizenship while inside Canada. You can only do so while in another country.

Once you renounce you will be foreigner and follow the immigration process to stay in Canada whether on visit/work/etc or apply for PR visa again. You might have to apply PR visa from your home country like as others...No special consideration..

Is there a reason why you can't just apply work visa in your home country as a Canadian citizen?
cuz work visa in my home country is pretty hard to apply
