Hi, I'm an Indian citizen and became a Canada PR on 2018-Jan with an PR card expiry on 2023-March.
I've been working with Software service companies thru these years who often does internal transfers/employment relocation between Canada and India.
Since im nearing my PR card expiry, I'm planning to apply for its renewal and I'm having a clarification regarding the RO days and Canada absence.
So, I was originally hired in Canada for a Canada location deployment starting 2020 Jan and I was working til mid Sept'2020. Then due to Covid-19 break out, and to spend time with my family back in India, per my request, I was relocated(from mid Sept 2020) with a full time employment in India by the same company to support my assignment with India payroll. Due to direct flight ban imposed by Canada government from India, I got stuck there working in India for over an year though I didn't intend for so long. Anyhow, after the ban was lifted, I got back again and Im working right now in Canada.
Now, when Im originally hired in Canada, will my employment days out of Canada, be counted towards RO days?
And when I'm filling details of section 5 in IMM5444, should i make a separate entry(with reason A) for my employment days in India in this internal relocation case?
Please suggest and help me to understand. Thanks much!
