Land in Canada then Leave to Continue Working in other Country.Possible?

[sodapop]

Anyone who used their visas and did land in Canada but left shortly to continue working in other country, like the middle east, but will continue living in Canada soon after being financially stable for sometime?

Is it possible to do such thing as this?

Yes - you can continue working in another country. As long as you live in Canada two out of every five rolling years you can maintain your PR status.

We wish to be Canadian citizens also, so we need 730 days to stay in Canada right?

Will those be accumulated or straight days/ years to be in Canada to maintain PR/ citizenship status?

thanks!

The rules for PR and citizenship are different.

You must live in Canada two years (730 days) out of every five years to maintain PR status. These days do not have to be consecutive / in a row.

To qualify to apply for citizenship, you must live in Canada for three years (1095 days) out of the last FOUR years (not five years). Once again, these days do not have to be consecutive / in a row.

Working in other country, it means outsourced work right?
