permenent residency status in -
QUESTION:
if you lived in Canada with a perm. residency status, then
moved out of the country for a period of years what is the usual
protocol for moving back to
Canada.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
david
ingram replies:
To maintain a Permanent Residence status in Canada you
must
1. Be physically present in Canada for 24 out of any 60
month period
OR
2. be working out of Canada for A
Canadian Firm
OR
3. Be living out of Canada with a
Canadian Citizen.
If any one of these three conditions have been met, you
may renew your PR card and return to Canada.
If NOT, you are
considered to have abandoned your status and will have to
reapply.

These are genuine educational seminars dealing with everything
from how to buy a house to making your mortgage tax deductible to buying an RRSP
to alternatives to RRSP accounts to estate planning. So what started as 13
separate seminars has now evolved into 23 separate topics.

UNUSUAL FOR PEOPLE TO COME TO ALL OF THEM.
ONE LADY CAME TO 53 separate
seminars and her husband came to about 20 with her.
