More over they are going to sleep over your application for another year after your submission. So, you will qualify for it with a lot of time to spare.

Thanks Freddie and everyone for quick help
This was a first book that I found written for the New Comers and I thought I will include this here for all of those who are going to read this material. It is available in any library to take out and read or buy it for keepsake.
How to survive your First Year: http://www.oupcanada.com/catalog/9780195428919.html
FOR CITIZENSHIP: It says Down load the New Guides here in the body of the letter. So, go ahead and do it and enjoy reading and listening to it.
The latest Guide for those who want to obtain Citizenship:

Freddie.
Not to confuse you much more, You returned back on the 18th of APRIL 2007. So on the 17th of April 2010 you will have your full THREE Years of qualifying stay here. The days you have over above the three years are from the 17th of April 2010 to current 10th May of 2010 are extra number of days, which will be 23 days. Many a times we do take a vacation or a holiday. You might have taken one also. If the number of days you were away after your landing on 18th of April 2007 and upto now, are more than 23 days, then you should wait till you cover atleast the number of days you were away. If they are less than 23 days, then your application will get through without a hitch. Which means that you will have no problems. They are also asking you to use the calculator that they have provided to you on their website and also obtain a printout and attach it to your application so that they will get to know that you have done your calculations properly and you know all about Citizenship and you will not have any problems after submission of the application.
At the end of my post above I have provided a question and answer PDF and they are for your guidance only. The NEW Booklet that they will be sending you might be slightly different from the previous ones and the Q & A for your test could vary or will have additional materials to study and answer. So, after submitting your application you can prepare for the test with the materials you will receive.
Good Luck to you.
Most of the responders above have not said anything more than what I gave you as my first response. Nor have they explained to you anything more to clear your doubts. So, you be guided accordingly. Also I did not have the need to go through all of what you are going through currently. Hence the explanatory materials to you and those who want to read further are provided to you to get a better grasp of the Citizenship application process.
Freddie.
I appreciate your detailed insight/guidence on citizeship down from my heart.
