Hi:
To qualify for Canadian Citizenship you friend, among other things, must have lived in
Canada for a total of 3 years out of 4 years. The time you lived in Canada before you
became a permanent resident counts as one half of the time if this time is not more than 4
years ago. Time in Canada longer than 4 years ago does not count. The time you lived in
Canada after you became a permanent resident counts as full time.
An applicant for citizenship must not be under a probation order, on parole, be
incarcerated pursuant to any law of Canada, or charged with an indictable offence under a
federal statute or an offence under the Act (whether the offence was committed in the
three years preceding the application for citizenship or between the date of the
application for citizenship and the day he or she would otherwise be granted citizenship).
