Bill C-6: Senate stage

[PMM]

Hi

I have heard "rumors" that PR card holders will be allowed to work abroad and the time spent outside will be added as he is living in Canada "as far as they fill the tax income and pay the taxes according to Canada laws". Is this true?

1. Extremely unlikely.

No.. Unless you are military or working for a Federal Canadian Company or the the spouse accompanying your husband/wife who works for military or federal govt abroad. But that rule exists in the current version of the law as well.

Yes I am aware of these groups. I had a tough argument before a while with a friend who insisted that this will happen in July, 2017. One of these people who claim to have secret people in the government. He said it is for money same as marijuana.

* You No.3 item: Liberals are supporting maximum age bracket of 54 to facilitate seniors then how could be bad

I viewed it as bad news because it would bring longer useless debate and potentially delay the bill.
From the voting records of third reading in the Senate, more senators disagreed lowering the age bracket and hence such an amendment passed. Although the Senate less-likely insists the amendments, it will certainly raises lots of debates and wastes time.

I did not say she did not. I simply said she has no power on senators.

True I really wish we get done with this very very soon and get on with our lives.

Lol. Hell yes. I just hope the 3/5 will be in force within 3 months or even 6 months. If it is a year then I am screwed..

Actually, as long as a PR is accompanying a spouse abroad working in any profession, his or her time abroad counts as time spent in Canada for the purposes of maintaining PR residency in Canada requirements. This is different however than the citizenship requirements which require that one actually be physically present in Canada. Hope this helps!

This type of rumor isn't even worth a brain cell to process to know it's fake

Less than 3 weeks left till Canada Day the Government vacation. Folks do you think it's still realistic to see C-6 approved by July 1st?

The worst part of bill C-24 was that it is easier to lose your citizenship than your PR status. The intent to reside and the terrorist clauses really weakened Canadian citizenship. According to CIC:
Losing your permanent resident status
You don’t lose your permanent resident status when your PR card expires. You can only lose your status if you go through an official process.

You can lose your permanent resident status if:

• an adjudicator determines you are no longer a permanent resident after an inquiry or PRTD appeal;
• you voluntarily renounce your permanent resident status;
• a removal order is made against you and comes into force; or
• you become a Canadian citizen.

Even if you don't meet the residency obligation, you are still a PR until an official decision is made on your status.
