Dear Moderator,
My wife and 3 kids landed in Canada back on February 12th, 2013 and stayed till November 20th, 2013(Staying time=282 days). My wife had to go back due to some unavoidable family situation and she had to go back to provide needed care to her father and my parents as they have gone through some surgeries and no one was there to help them. She stayed there from November 21st, 2013 to December 16th, 2016. As they got better and had the support so my wife returned to Canada and landed back with 3 kids on December 16th, 2016.
My wife PR card is expiring on March 11th, 2018. Her staying period since December 16th, 2016 till March 11th, 2018 will be
December 16th, 2016 to March 11th, 2018= 451 days
so her total time period
February 12th, 2013 to March 11th, 2018=282+451=733 days
Her actual 5 years period will be February 12th, 2013 to February 12th, 2018 and her staying period for the mentioned 5 years will be 282+424=706 days and it is 24 days less then 730 days.
She is here now permanently and living with me and kids. I already applied for citizenship for myself and for my kids and the application of me and my kids are accepted by CIC Canada.
I would like to ask that when I should apply for the renewal of her PR card after 730 days? or now? If CIC will be looking at a period of 5 years after her landing then she is 24 days short of 730 days residency obligation. will they consider and approve her application for the renewal?
