Residency obligation short of 23 days

[smsanlazaro]

Hello! I am planning to go back to Canada to meet my residency obligations. My PR card will expire next year (2014) yet. However, in my calculation, even if I go back this month, my residency is short of 23 days to complete the 730 days. Will I be allowed entry in Canada upon my arrival? Please advise. Thank you.

1. Sure you will be admitted but may get a lecture about not meeting the residency obligation or worse get reported (unlikely due to the cushion of time you have).

2. Once in Canada don't renew your PR Card before you have 730 days in the 5 years prior to the application date.
