I hold a PR card that expires in late April AND I am eligible to apply for citizenship. I'm not sure whether to apply to renew the PR card or apply for citizenship. I want to apply for Canadian citizenship. Can I apply for citizenship, then let the PR card expire while I wait, and then apply for a PR travel document if I need to travel internationally and return to Canada? Or do I need to do both: apply for the PR card renewal and citizenship at the same time?
Also, does the expiration of the PR card mean that my PR status expires? And does this affect my employment? Will I lose my employment if my PR card expires?
