I became a PR in April 2004 and I landed in April 2004.
My question is the 183 day rule which is required to keep PR status will that be counted from April 2004 - April 2005 or will be it be based on Jan 2004 - Jan 2005 ?
Is there any 183 day rule for PR??? I have never heard about it. Have such rules for taxation but PR (immigration) - I doubt.

It is not there anymore . Now you have to maintain 2 years out of 5 years of verifiable residency to maintain your PR in canada.

Hi,
I am applying for PR from Los Angeles. Please suggest to me as I have two landing options:
Since I joined this company in end of 2002 I haven't had the chance to go to India and be with my parents. Assuming I get my PR May-June of 2005, can I land in vancouver, stay my cousin till I get my PR card, health card, bank accounts set up etc and then fly to India, stay there 4-5 months and then come back? Can I do that?
Or do you think I should first go to India and then land in Canada? (PS: I do not want to leave US until I get my PR visa from Canada because my first three years' visa will be expiring in Apr 05 and I don't want to get into hassles of having problems entering again)
Please folks I need your suggestions. What would you do if you were in my situation.
Let me know, ASAP
Thanks,
Me2Canada

If I were in your situation, I would rest and not worry about landing and India trip till my visa for Canadian PR would be received.
Then once I get it, I will look into options at that time, because either the things might have changed, or no options would be available except to leave USA.

Once you get your Cdn PR, you can decide based on your circumstances [and how much you miss your family].
There is no specific route to get into Canada.
