Hello,
I am working over seas for a Saudi Based company who has factories in Dubai and Saudi.
I am a field person, setting up camps in various countries in the Middle East, Central Asia and North Africa, when not in the field I am based out of Dubai. I have gotten rid of all my ties to Canada ( Drivers License, home, bank accounts etc.) but the company will not provide me with a residency permit in the UAE. Field personal work under temporary work Visas in the country they are in at the time. My question is this –
Do I need to have RESIDENCY elsewhere before I can be considered a non-resident of Canada, even if I have followed all the steps in the NR-73 form and have few ties to Canada (I do have children I pay monthly child support to back in Canada).
Thank You Very Much,
