Permanent Residency - Loss of Status

Loss of Status

Permanent residents may lose their status if they fail to comply with residency or other obligations imposed on them. For example:

  • they leave the country beyond a maximum number of days (varies among countries but usually more than 2 years)
  • they become a threat to national security, or they commit serious crimes and become subject to deportation or removal from the country

Famous quotes containing the words loss of, loss and/or status:

    Love seeketh only self to please,
    To bind another to its delight,
    Joys in another’s loss of ease,
    And builds a Hell in Heaven’s despite.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    Bad company is as instructive as licentiousness. One makes up for the loss of one’s innocence with the loss of one’s prejudices.
    Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

    The influx of women into paid work and her increased power raise a woman’s aspirations and hopes for equal treatment at home. Her lower wage and status at work and the threat of divorce reduce what she presses for and actually expects.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
