Topic: Question about PR and Living outside Canada

dolkong9

Hi I will be marrying Canadian citizen on October in South Korea

and will apply for the PR and this is the where my question comes out.

we figured out that even I don't live in Canada if my partner lives with me in Korea that considers as physically present.

And I do want to apply for the Citizenship if I can and this is where my question comes out.

So I used to study in Toronto about 4 years when I was young around 5th grade to 8th grade

Days spent in Canada before becoming a permanent resident (as a temporary resident or protected person) within 5 years of applying for citizenship, count as ½ days, up to a maximum of 1 year (365 days).

As the policy changed, for me that probably count as 1 year for the citizenship 3 out of 5 years but I still have 2 more year to go and I probably have to keep working in Korea for few more years

Does my partner staying with me also counts for the Citizenship or not?

Thank you and please help me
