PR Card renewal - September 2026

[iukhan]

Now, with resubmission, I cannot meet the 730-day requirement. Although I believe the rejection was due to the primary ID, which is not a valid reason, on the same page, at one spot the number is very clear, slightly faded at the top of the page. I have submitted a web form requesting reconsideration and to lock the date on 24 Sept 2026.

You are going back in the queue!

The webform is not going to help and you should have not submitted that.. Please look for the similar cases in the forum and I alone have explained this to people multiple times.
Your 730 obligation is not in question. Do not over think!. They have checked every other aspect of the application and have "RETURNED" due to a faded copy and nothing else. You will provide them the copy and you will have your PR by the end of the year (if they pace up) or early next year (if they continued with this pace).

Thank you. If that is the case, it's a relief. However, after I applied, I left Canada. At that time, I met the 730-day requirement. So, with this resubmission, if my date is not locked at 24 September, I am not in compliance. I uploaded a clear version and resubmitted immediately. I can hope for the renewal sometime in late Dec or early Jan? If they take 24 Sept as the application date and count back the days. Thanks again.

Got this response to the webform.

In an effort to improve processing times, IRCC does completeness checks upon reception for all PR card applications.

When an application is incomplete, the Case Processing Centre (CPC) returns it to the client and includes a letter indicating what is missing. It includes 2 options:

• Resubmit the application with the missing information and documents,
  • if you choose this option, it is not necessary to re-sign or redate the application, unless it is dated more than 90 days before it is received at the CPC (stale dated), or
• Request a refund of the fees because the client no longer wishes to send the application.
