Hello all,
I understand that when applying for Citizenship one needs to have at least 3 yrs out of 5 yrs maintained in Canada as a whole irrespective of where one lives...but for those that came through PNP and/or Quebec Skilled Worker program and stayed in (in case of QSW) in Montreal say for couple of months and then moved to other province ..... My question is will the 2yr minimum residency requirement (aka 730 minimum residency rule) be necessary to satisfy within 5yr window as I was told this might be an issue when raised in Citizenship interview although its rare it definitely is a possibility ?
I am listing this following link for anyone who has never come across this issue below as it is a valid issue:
