First: to obtain Permanent Residency ...
- In the case of foreign nationals seeking permanent status in Canada, a more detailed interview may be required before entry will be granted.
- Individuals who want to become permanent residents must establish that they have the necessary visa or any other document required by regulations and that they have come to Canada to establish permanent residence.
- Individuals who want to become permanent residents and who are subject to a province's sole selection responsibility under a federal-provincial agreement must establish that they hold a document issued by the province indicating that they comply with the province's selection criteria.

Possession of a visa or a permit does not guarantee a person's admission to Canada. The examining officer at the port of entry must be satisfied that the visa or permit is valid, that the person's circumstances have not changed since the visa or permit was issued, and that the person's presence in Canada will not contravene any of the provisions of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and its Regulations.

After you've got it, here is what you must do to comply with your residency obligations.

You must accumulate two years of physical presence in Canada in every five-year period. You can also count Canadian residency days if you are outside Canada for an extended period of time for one of the following reasons:

- You are accompanying your Canadian-citizen spouse or common-law partner.
- You are a child accompanying a Canadian-citizen parent.
- You are employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business, the Public Service of Canada or the public service of a Canadian province.
- You are accompanying your permanent resident spouse or common-law partner who is also outside Canada and who is employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business, the Public Service of Canada or the public service of a Canadian province.
- You are a child accompanying a permanent resident parent who is outside Canada and employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business, the Public Service of Canada or the public service of a Canadian province.

Please note that you are complying with your residency obligations only if:

- your accompanying permanent-resident spouse, common-law partner or parent is complying with their residency obligations; and
- you ordinarily reside with your accompanying Canadian-citizen or permanent-resident spouse, common-law partner or parent.

cross the border and get pregnant or at least have your baby there(lol)

If the above doesn't work, try telling them you're from Mexico [that works here].

Last, if all else fails, try legally applying thru the Candian government's department for Immigration and have a job plan!

All you used to have to do was claim you didn't like the war in Viet Nam --
you could even be AWOL or a Deserter. [I'm not joking here]
