Relocating to a different province after PR

Opinion Piece

Hello Family,

I got my PR as a dependent to my wife who was eligible for PR through PNP Express Entry application.

I received my PR CARD last week and my entire family have lived in Manitoba for 3 year since arriving in Canada and we are eligible for citizenship application in 2 year time .

I, the husband and dependent to my wife’s PR application have gotten a job in Ontario and thinking of accepting the offer . However, I wanted an honest opinion on whether it will affect our future Citizenship application even though I had lived 3 years in Manitoba before PR.

If it will have any effect, can return to Manitoba in 3 years time to live here for another 2year before applying for Citizenship?

Pls help a confused fellow.
