Canada residence: what the permit is worth.
How far this permit travels, the days it costs to keep, and the separate eligibility clocks it may involve. Field-level primary review is shown where it is complete; other fields remain pending.
The days that keep it alive
Presence rules are where residence permits are won and lost — and they’re exactly what Countly counts. Check the responsible authority before relying on a rule.
No minimum days per year and no maximum-absence rule for the status itself. A temporary resident (work/study permit or visitor status) keeps status…
no fixed presence requirement is published for this status — but keep evidence of ties.
staying past 183 days typically makes you a tax resident — a different count, also worth tracking.
