Hi, I hope I am putting this query in the right area.... Here are my circumstances.
I lived in Canada from 1974 to 1999 as a landed immigrant. I married a Canadian and have five children that were born in Canada.
We moved to Australia where I was originally from in 1999 and have since divorced.
I have a father who is 79 in Canada and 1 daughter is living there.
I would like to return to Canada and work while I am there, I need to help out my dad who is not financially able to look after himself any more.
I have a canadian social insurance card...
so am I a returning resident? i haven't been living in Canada for two out of the last five years.
so I would say no... do I need to re-immigrate?
I would only like to stay a year or two until I have my dad sorted out financially.
thanks in advance for any advice given
Cheers
Elsa
