Topic: Non-Resident and PR/Citizenship Application Impact

nk2114

Hi:
I am hoping you can help me. I have a PR card that is expiring in November 2019 and also would like to apply for my Canadian citizenship this year.

Here are my questions:

1. I have been deemed a non-resident of Canada for tax purposes since 2016 - does this have any impact on my PR card renewal or citizenship application? I still meet the 730/1095 days requirement for the last 5 years from the date that I am applying.
2. How soon before November 2019 can I apply for a PR card renewal? I would like to apply at the same time as my citizenship application which would make it 9 months before expiry.
3. Can I apply for both the PR card and citizenship at the same time?
4. Is a picture of my university degree (I attended a Canadian university) enough evidence to demonstrate adequate knowledge of English?
5. Is it correct that I must submit my applications within 90 days from the date that I have signed ie. my date of application is February 19 and I must submit before May 19 for it to be accepted?

Thank you very much for your help!
