1. how long does it normally take after application (assuming all else is in good standing order) to be granted citizenship?
2. is one required to be in Canada whilst their citizenship application is being processed?
3. after obtaining your citizenship is there any minimum time spent obligation to be met - kinda like PR obligation of 2 out of 5 years?

1) timeline is based on processing time listed on website.
2) under current law, yes. You must remain "reside in canada" until citizenship is granted. You can leave for short vacation purposes since your main residence is still in Canada.
3) there is no limit once citizenship is obtained.
