Oh, okay, thank you for the clarification.

I recently crossed the borders from the States to Canada by land using my expired PR card and my passport. The officer at the borders thought I was a visitor even though I gave her my PR card and a passport. She didn't notice the PR card and she asked me a question "How long will you stay in...

Thank you both for the responses. I really appreciate that.

Thank you very much for the response!

Hello, I would like to ask if taxi is considered a commercial or non commercial vehicle when entering Canada through Buffalo borders with an expired PR card. Any answer would be appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you Kissyred, I am sure you will get your PR card soon. I think you and I have similar timelines. Good luck!

So, no you don't need to send the entire application; just send the additional docs.

Hello again, I only re-sent the part of the application in which I made an error - the travel history part. I explained in the email that I had sent my application a few days earlier but I had made an error and that I am sending a revised part of application - just the page with a fixed error. I...

Yes, you can e-mail or mail them additional documents even after you have already sent to CIC your application for a PR card renewal. I did the same thing this year when I sent my application for a PR card renewal and two days later I realized I had made an error on my application plus I forgot...
