You may lose your permanent resident status in one of the ways described above if:

you do not live in Canada for two out of five years;
you are convicted of a serious crime and told to leave Canada; or
you become a Canadian citizen.

thanks a lot @XpressEnterprise for your reply. Also, do we need to carry any photos at the time of our first landing in Canada?

Also, can I show bank statement of a US account as the proof of funds?

Thanks in advance!

1) Are you talking about passport-sized photos? It's advisable to have them with you. You may need some for paperwork. It's, however, not mandatory

2) You can surely use US bank statement as Proof of Funds. But, not like those general bank statements. It should be on official bank letterpad.

Guys,

I have a question, while landing we need to submit PR application card form. I have used representative for my application. So do I need to use that form 'use of representative' here again along with PR card application?

Thank you in advance.

No, you don't need to submit PR card application form during landing. You can confirm this with the border officer you encountered.

1. Goods to carry list does not required. Only pictures of jewellery is enough with estimated price in CAD dollars.
2. Add what ever you can think of in goods to follow list. It does not matter what is in it. You can bring rest of your stuff even later on after many years.
3. Even put funds in goods to follow list, if CBSA officer ask you for that you can tell him that I will brought them here once I open my account here and after selling my assets from back home.
other wise convert your funds in gold, and mention it in goods to follow list. Goods to follow list should be like you are prince so no worries if you have those things with you right now or you can buy those after years.
No worries

Please advise if photographs of jewellery items are required or colored photocopies /printouts of the jewellery pictures can be taken ...seniors pls advise ...

There is no specific format. Use Form B4/B4A as guidance.

You can either print it out or take photographs. Both are accepted. Just make sure item is clearly visible

Hello guys,

What is the requirement for citizenship? How many years one has to stay in Canada to do that? Thanks.

Hello guys,

You need to look into Residency requirements of citizenship. Currently, it's 1460 Days (4 years) with minimum of 183 days per year

However, new Liberal government have repealed Bill-C24 which will bring residency requirements back to 3 years.
