I need a help from you.

I have got immigrant visa alongwith my wife and daughter in 2004, landed in dec 2004 and came back to my country. We got the PR card acoordingly. In 2005, my wife and daughter will land in Canada and stay there for 3/4 years to get the citizenship and passport. I cannot go now for my personal circumstances and as it looks now, it may not be possible for me to go at all to Cnada for working and living. My questions are:

1.Since I am the principal applicant, if my wife and daughter go without me, will that (my absence) affect their citizenship process after 3/4 years in any way? I understand that principal applicant concept applies during the application process only and after landing and having PR cards for each one of us does not require me to stay with them for getting their citizenship. What I am trying to understand is now my wife is a landed immigrant and she can stay on her own and apply for the citizenship with referring to me as the "Principal Applicant". Is my understanding correct?

2.If I do not stay in Canada for 2 years within 5 years time, I will loose my PR Status. If I decide on a later date (say after 10 years) to re-apply for immigration, which option I should choose:

a.re-apply as per the standard procedure (Skilled worker class)
b.my spouse as a canadian Citizen (at that time) can sponsor me

I shall be grateful for your advise.

Thanks.

Joy
