Achieve and maintain PR status

Secure your permanent residence status in Canada

Life can be unpredictable. If you need to leave Canada for an extended period, we’ve got you covered. From guiding your PR application to minimizing revocation risks, our passionate team of regulated Canadian immigration consultants is with you every step of the way.

Understand permanent residency obligations to keep your PR status

To maintain your PR status, you must be physically present in Canada for at least 730 days within a 5-year period. These days do not need to be consecutive, but it’s essential to track your time accurately. This requirement ensures that you remain committed to living in Canada and contributing to its society.

Here are strategies we guide clients through and common exceptions to the 730 rule.

Keeping PR status in Canada while living abroad

Keep detailed records of your time spent in Canada
Such as travel documents and boarding passes, to prove your physical presence if required.
Compassionate grounds
In some cases, you may be able to apply on humanitarian and compassionate grounds.
Full-time employment of a Canadian business
Your days as a full-time employee of a Canadian business or the public service of Canada may also count towards your residency requirement.
Accompanying a Canadian citizen spouse or parent
Time spent outside of Canada with a Canadian citizen spouse or parent can count towards your residency days.

Consequences of not meeting residency requirements

Failing to meet the residency requirement could lead to the loss of your PR status. Seek counsel from a licensed immigration consultant immediately to explore your options and take corrective action.

If you lose your PR status, you may consider the appeal option if available. Alternatively, you can explore eligible immigration programs to regain your PR status. Our immigration consultants can provide assistance with either option.
