For different reasons, there are some Canadian immigrants who do not have the idea and conditions to take root in Canada. However, if applicants who have obtained permanent resident status cannot meet the minimum requirements of "residential obligations", they may lose their permanent resident status. This situation where you have to stay in Canada in order to retain your permanent residence status is like "in prison", so it is nicknamed " immigration prison ".
Question 1: How long is the minimum "immigration prison"?
If you have become a permanent resident for more than 5 years:
Then you must actually live in Canada for more than 730 days within the past 5 years;
Here you need to accurately understand the meaning of "730 days", that is, every time you enter Canada, calculate 5 years from the past to see if this period of time meets the requirement of 730 days in Canada.
If you have been a permanent resident for less than 5 years:
then you must prove that you are still possible, at least in Canada, actually reside for 730 days.
Should Canadian citizens be in "immigration prison"?
does not need it. The "immigration prison" requirement is only for permanent residents. Once you become Canadian citizen and become a Canadian citizen, you no longer need to meet the "immigration prison" needs for living for 730 days every five years. However, if Canadian citizens live in China for a long time, they are required to leave the country once every six months.
Question 2: If you cannot actually live, is there any alternative?
Situation 1: Living with a Canadian citizen
Resident with a Canadian citizen outside Canada can be "deemed" to live in Canada.
This permanent Canadian resident must be a Canadian citizen outside Canada who is in a spouse relationship, cohabitation partner relationship, and parent relationship;
Situation 2: Outside Canada, employed in a specific unit,
Full-time employment in a "Canadian business", or work for the public administration department of the federal or a province of Canada; relevant documents need to be issued to prove the legal employment relationship and reasonable reasons for working abroad.
Scenario 3: Outside Canada, living with a permanent resident
The Canadian permanent resident must be your spouse, cohabitation partner or parent, and the Canadian permanent resident must be employed full-time in a "Canadian business" or work for the public administration of the federal or province of Canada.
Question 3: When to check the "immigration supervision" situation?
When you are preparing to apply for a brand new maple leaf card , or when you need to apply for a permanent resident travel document due to various emergencies such as forgetting or losing maple leaf card, your "immigration supervision" situation will be tested.
In addition, when you return to Canada to enter, the "immigration prison" situation will be tested. Of course, not every entry inspection will be so strict, but once the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) finds that your actual situation may not meet your "residential obligation", it may apply for verification and require you to provide a certificate of residence.
Serious misunderstanding: If you have a maple leaf card, everything will be fine
"Maple leaf card" is just a file that can prove the identity of a permanent resident. However, even if the maple leaf card is still valid, this does not mean that the "residential obligation" must be met.
For example, an applicant has become a permanent resident of Canada, but he left Canada shortly after logging in and lived abroad for more than four years. Although his maple leaf card is still valid, since he has not met the immigration supervision requirements of permanent resident, it is possible that when he enters, the Immigration Bureau refuses to enter the country on the grounds that the remaining time is not enough to stay for two years.
Therefore, it is worth noting that the validity period of the maple leaf card must not be regarded as a determination condition for whether the "residential obligation" is met. Applicants who have obtained permanent residence status should take the "immigration supervision" requirements seriously. If you do not live enough, it is very important to consult professional immigration agencies in advance to find legal paths and accurately calculate the time and entry date. Once you are denied entry because you do not meet the immigration supervision requirements, it may be difficult to make up for it and you will lose your permanent resident status.
