I am in Toronto as a PR from June 2015. I am an Indian and was working in one of the GCC country. I did not resign officially and hence did not cancel my resident visa, it will expire in Feb 2016.
Now I do not want to return to Gulf and want to continue in Canada to become a citizen.
Will it cause any problem while I apply for PR card Renewal or apply for citizenship.???
When, CIC rewiew my travel history, will they ask for entry/exit proof ???
Thanks in advance
rina

Hello Rina,
Thank you for sharing your situation and questions with us.
For renewal of PR cards and for Citizenship applications, if you check the “Yes” box for the questions related to “History of Entries to Canada” on your citizenship application or your PR card renewal application, this will give CIC permission to get your history of entries from the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). It will also take less time than you asking the CBSA for your history.
If you do not check the “Yes” box, you may be asked to send a request for personal information to the CBSA to get your history of entries.
In terms of if there will be any issues when you apply for these, we suggest that you contact the Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) Call Centre directly for information specific to your situation.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
