Eligibility for work permits or other status are, of course, not relevant to calculating meeting residency requirements. Going in either direction.
I really was curious why you thought there was a possibility otherwise. I know of no countries that give immigrants any kind of reciprocal credit for such things as residency calculations. On the other hand, I know many Americans who do not quite grasp that Canada is not part of the U.S., that Canada really is a separate, independent sovereign country. I was wondering if that impression has spread beyond the American States. |

BTW: Not an expert, not a Can. lawyer, never worked in immigration |
