Violated Residency Obligations: Over 730 days.

Hi

albertcourt wrote: My mother is a PR with a valid PR card, and is currently outside of Canada. She has just realized that she has exceeded the 730-day limit for being outside of Canada in the last 5 years. Her current stay outside of Canada has been around 585 days. Added to previous trips within the last 5 years and her total is around 745 days.  She is prepared to return to Canada within 2 weeks and wants to know what to expect. She is Japanese and will be flying into Vancouver. Also, she has been a PR for about 38 years and has two Canadian children.  I kindly ask for any advice you can give us on this matter.

It is unlikely that she will be reported. Most likely just waived through with the usual customs formalities. By the way, the limit being outside Canada in each 5 years period is 1095 days, not 730.
