I am a medical doc in Canada and I completed my post grad in the US on a J1 visa. I am a Permanent resident in Canada. My PR card will expire shortly.
I work full time here in Canada. My family including my siblings are all Canadian Citizens. If I apply now I would be 90 days short of the 730 day obligation.
I was informed by an Immigration Lawyer to still apply even if I do not have enough days. I was told that an immigration judge would most likely give me a year extension on my PR card and that after that allocated time period I should reapply for my PR card. I was told not to wait until I had enough days as this would look "suspicious"
I have been on this website multiple times and I am at odds on the best way to proceed. If anyone can help I would truly appreciate it.
Thank You.
