Hi Guys,

I had a question I hope somebody can clarify that for me please:

The citizen ship act that is in effect since July 1st 2015 states that: "Physically present in Canada for 183 days (minimum) per year in 4 out of 6 years."
Before July 1st 2015, there was no requirement to be physically present.

What does it mean to be physically present? From what I understand, does this mean that to keep the Permanent Residence status you need to stay in Canada atleast 6 months in a year? Otherwise you lose your PR? Am I interpreting this correct? What do you need to maintain the PR status at minimum? Thanks for your feedback guys.

The new times relate to qualifying for citizenship. There is no change to the PR requirements (2 years out of a rolling 5 years physically present in Canada). There is also no requirement to go on to become a citizen - you can continue as a permanent resident indefinitely as long as you maintain the 2/5 rule.

any one got medical request for March and April applicant? please share the time line
If I follow the google sheet that @harirajmohan has on his signature.
Didnt see any inland application has received medical request yet, except for paulgovas I believe.
I have no idea how is the process behind the table, we can only just sit and wait.

Thanks alot!
I have confirmed this from CIC's website. So it means complete 2 years in a total of 5 years and the time spent can be with split.
