If I interpret this correctly, we can still work in US and fulfill minimum stay eligibility for citizenship?
Well if thats true than it's good news for people working in US. However, I heard that US and Canada share social security details. Is that correct?
In order to be eligible for Cdn citizenship, you must have LIVED in Canada for a certain number of days. That has nothing to do with where you work. You could potentially commute across the border into the US every day if you live in one of the border communities along the thousands of miles of US-Canada border.

Also to add, while leaving for USA they gace us new I-94 as my previous I-94 was expired, also they stamped as admitted on xx/xx/xxxx.
While coming back after 2 days , I asked Canadian authority to stamped in passport specifying that I am admitted back to Canada. They told it is not required , I explained them that It may be required while applying for citizenship ...but again they just told they can't do. No furhter explaination.
Hope this is helpful.
Canada does not stamp passports while entering through a land crossing if you a PR or a citizen. Visitors entering Canada through land crossing get a stamp, but the duration of allowed stay is not entered.
However, the licence plate of the vehicle you are traveling in, gets captured and recorded. How that information could be used, who knows, it's a top secret, maybe.

dimple2001,
This hold true for my experience while coming back once from USA to Canada via air. They didn't stamp passport nor swipe my PR.
Thx
