Hello dear friend ( Leon )

If during filling application considering last 6 year period
since 2011- 2017
in 2011 - 30 days
2012 - 110 days
2013 - 130 days
2014 - 365 days
2015 -365 days
2016 - 300 days
2017 - 200 days
so in 4 / 6 years residence requirement - ok
Tax requirement - ok

My question is whether

ques 1. As in 2011, 2012, & 2013 the days stayed are less in Canada.

In this circumstances does CIC may issue RQ and may led the application to Non routine ?
Which may push the processes to around 3 years as mentioned in the site.

Quest 2. Is there any chance the if the new govt if other than ruling party may make some softening steps in intent to reside clause, to the existing rules in future.

Please clarify

Thank you so much
1) As long as you meet the requirements, it should be fine. But no one knows for sure. The rules have only been in place for a week+ so no one knows how this will play out. But supposedly with the new rules, processing times will decrease so I would assume this means less RQs. We'll see.

2) Unlikely. C24 actually had fairly broad support across all parties. And what complaints that some opposition party member had, they were almost all in regards to the clause where dual citizens can have their Canadian citizenship revoked if convicted of terrorism. Very few raised any concerns about the other clauses - including the new 4/6 rule or 1460 days or even the intent to reside.
