Calculating your 1,095 days of physical presence for Canadian citizenship is harder than it sounds. The five-year eligibility period shifts with every day you spend abroad, and IRCC counts arrival days, departure days, and even short trips to the United States. The half-day rule for time spent in Canada before becoming a permanent resident — as a student, worker, visitor, or protected person — adds another layer of math, capped at 365 half-days.
1095days is the free, IRCC-aligned tool that does it for you. Log every trip, see your projected eligibility date, and download a clean travel history report you can hand to your immigration officer. Whether you have years to go or you're checking eligibility today, you'll know exactly where you stand.
