How to maintain Canadian identity after getting maple leaf card and returning to China for development?

According to Canadian law, new immigrants must live in Canada for two years within five years in order to maintain their immigration status. If you have not actually lived in Canada for more than 730 days during the five-year period, as long as you meet the following conditions, you will be deemed to have fulfilled your residence obligations:

1. Living outside Canada with a spouse who has Canadian citizenship (for example, a husband accompanies his wife or a wife accompanies his husband); ?

2. The spouse is a full-time employee sent overseas by a Canadian enterprise or a full-time civil servant sent overseas by a Canadian government department;

3. I am a full-time employee sent overseas by a Canadian enterprise or a full-time official sent overseas by a Canadian government department;

As long as you meet one of the above three conditions, you can still live in Canada even if you don't live in Canada.

It should be pointed out that:

(1) The accompanying Canadian spouse or full-time foreign spouse must be able to prove that they live together. For example, if the spouse is Canadian, but the spouse lives in Canada and China, then this situation cannot be regarded as that the spouse lives in Canada. ?

(2) accompanied by a spouse, you must provide proof of the relationship between the two, such as the translation of their marriage certificate into English and notarization of the marriage certificate. You can't do this without supporting documents that can prove the relationship between two people.

(3) Although the time spent with your spouse or living abroad can be regarded as living in Canada, the application submitted to the Immigration Bureau is required to be submitted in Canada. If the application is submitted outside Canada, Immigration Canada will not accept it.
