I need to travel outside of Canada for a short business trip, but I don't have a PR card. I have been unsuccessfully trying to get the IRCC to process the PR card application (been pending for a long, long time and there have been some internal hiccups). I can apply for a PRTD but since it is a short trip, I don't think I will remain in that location long enough to get the PRTD issued.
I realized that do have a V-1 multiple entry visa that was issued before I became a PR. My question is - can I enter on V-1 visa as a temporary resident (despite that I'm already a PR), with the plan of going to a land border subsequently to re-enter as PR again? This is a pretty unusual situation so I have not found any precedents. Wonder if anybody here knows - thank you in advance.
