Provided that you possess a valid PR card, it is not re-entry to Canada that you need to worry about , but keeping the PR status for which a PR needs to satisfy the Residency Obligation. Citizenship is few more steps down the line where you must be physically present in Canada as a permanent...

In general, you must be physically present in Canada for a minimum of 730 days within the five (5) years to keep your permanent residency status. The time you can spend outside can be calculated based on that. However, in order to return to Canada one should have either a PR card or a PRTD. If...

Hi @Man111 We only get the account activated and the debit card issued after the landing and by visiting a branch, am I correct here ? Can we do the initial account opening few months before the landing ? Do we have to maintain same currency (CAD) in both send and receive accounts? Thank You

@ac100 , @rish888 ,@Nasrab2005 & anyone, Please advise me on how to fill 'the date you intend to return to Canada' field in the PRTD application. 01. My question is does this exactly need to match the date that I return ? (planning to return back to Canada after 3 months of a soft landing, but...

@Bangkok16 Did you complete your first landing ? How did it go? Did you give a friend's address to get the PR card or applied for a PRTD afterwards?

Hi, I'm in a similar soft landing situation and also came across the settlement.org link below. https://settlement.org/ontario/immigration-citizenship/landing-and-leaving/leaving-canada/i-need-to-leave-canada-but-do-not-have-my-pr-card-yet-what-should-i-do/ 01. When they say PR status does...

Hi, I'm in a similar situation (with COPR) and find this information greatly helpful. My intentions are to do a soft landing and apply for the PR card since then I do not have to worry about a PRTD. 01. As you have mentioned , I do not want to lie to a CBSA officer during my first visit. If...

I see , it seems this stage can take up to months to see results !

Hi , What is the status of your application now? Did you get PPR ? I lodged my application and now it seems to be at IP2 and I have also gotten 'no additional documents needed' status.

Good luck mate ! thank you for your insights !

This information is so valuable, thank you !

Thank you for the reply, from what I have gathered I have to put home country as country of education and {by correspondence} is only for online and distance learning. At what stage is your application now? Was your MBA a full time one? Do you think we should provide any evidence from local...

It seems I'm also in a similar situation. I have received the ITA. My educational credentials (BCS PGD ) are from the UK but I studied for them through a partner institution in my home country, Sri Lanka. The UK body has a presence (a regional country office) in my country and they conduct all...

I stand corrected, there are reported cases where applications have been canceled due to not providing PCCs for countries mentioned in the educational background. Provided that country is mentioned as Sri Lanka, I reckon what I'm looking for is the exact situations one should use {by...

Thanks for the prompt reply ! What I have already indicated in my EE profile before receiving the ITA is Institution - BCS country - Sri Lanka. I also think this should be fine with a LOE. Or else one could mention it as: Institution - BCS {by correspondence} country - Sri Lanka or Institution...
