Reapplying but I work outside of Canada

[redtico]

Hi everyone I need you advice,

I have to re-apply to the citizenship because of 1 day I missed on my physical count and didn't have enough buffer (my fault) but when I first apply I was working in Canada now I have a new job and it requires me to travel a lot.

Question:
If I put in the application that the city and country of my new job is elsewhere other than Canada, would affect their decision. I still have intent to reside here.

I need some light!

Everything else it's good I have now far more days (1567) and I literally missed just one trip.

How much buffer you are giving to apply for citizenship? As you know, Intent to reside clause is now in effect and you are working abroad, it might affect your application.

High risk to face Non Routine route.

Intent to reside is a small issue which you can handle but travelling lot and working abroad both things CIC officers doesn't like.

As per law if you have 1460 days physical presence they cant refuse.

But this is truth believe me CIC bureaucratic hands can keep you wait for years under non routine.

You can read in this forum hundreds of applicant face this situation.

One of our rights as Canadians is the freedom to come and go. It's always baffled me, why do those CIC ask stupid questions about where you went or why you went somewhere?? You spent your money, not their money!
So far as your days are genuinely complete, they shouldn't be asking private questions!

Read the Question 10 under Section 10 as per the following link:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/CIT0002ETOC.asp

This requirement signals that citizenship is for those who intend to make their home in Canada. Applicants for citizenship must satisfy this requirement up until the taking of the Oath of Citizenship. However, this requirement would not limit citizens’ mobility rights. New citizens will be able to leave and return to the country like other citizens.


So, CIC asks questions about travel is to assess the residency obligations to ensure the person meets required number of days to qualify as well as to ensure the applicant meets the intent to reside clause.

Hi I have now 1547 days compared to 1461 when I first applied.
And went over all my trips again!

I just felt really disappointed at me, for not catching that trip.
But now I am based here in Canada but travel a lot as my company is in another country.

is your pay roll in Canada and did you pay tax in Canada? If they suspect you work oversea and not paying tax from all outside Canada (or underpaid), it can be ground for rejection or at least non routine route
