Hi Passionate Lover,
I was wondering if you have watched this video that provides clarification regarding "Intent to reside"

But interview is the last step . OP will be back by then

Not necessarily, if OP leaves Canada for 5 months after filing application he/she could probably be called for test before being back permanently. Right now processing time is very fast and test/interview can take place 2-3 months after applying. So OP won't/might not be back permanently by then.....
