Dear Members,
Any feedback would be appreciated!
Under new Canadian immigration Bill C-6, a permanent resident will be able to apply for citizenship if spends 3 years out of 5 years physically in Canada. My question is if someone who's a PR keeps away from Canada for the first 2 years but physically stay during the last 3 years in a given 5 year period, can this person would be able to submit application for citizenship?
My second question, Bill C-6 has not yet been approved by Senate and more likely take couple of more months to get approved. If someone is already a PR now say from January 1st, 2017 and if this person stays physically next 3 years in Canada till end of 2019, will it be possible for this person to apply for citizenship on 1st January, 2020 under the proposed new immigration law Bill C-6?
