Don't make the mistake of thinking you have to "apply for PR" or wait a year. PR is gained automatically regardless of whether you apply for proof of it or not, and depending on how long you have held PR before you apply for the document, there may be no need to wait at all before applying for citizenship.gammavega wrote:Not really. You can apply for BC one year after being granted PR. So apply for PR asap and once granted you'll have to wait one year before applying for BC.
The law changed in November 2015, automatic PR doesn't count anymore, you need a physical PR paper.
