PR application / PRTD question

[Eva75]

Hello!
I saw that on the application for PR renewal they want now to know if you ever received a PRTD? This question is new, right?

I received a PRTD in the past, because of a delay in the delivery of my first PR Card and I had to leave the country. This cannot be an issue, or? Why would they want to know this now?

Thank you!
Eva

It's relevant because many who apply for PRTDs have to do so because they do not have a PR card and were not in compliance with the residency obligation.

No, it won't cause a problem with yours. They'll check to see the reason you had to apply for one, and will see the history.
