    PR active but RO may be short by atleast 4 months

    The 730 days in Canada RO doesn't relate to a 'fixed' 5 year period, but basically the 5 years period backwards from when an IRCC officer looks at your case to evaluate it. As such it is not directly related to the validity/expiry of the PR card, however if/when you enter Canada with a valid PR...

    RO cutting it close - question about filling travel history

    The 5 year period counts backwards from when an IRCC officer looks at your case and evaluates it. It is as such not related to the validity or expiry of the PR card itself. For your 'travel history' it only matters for when you are in Canada versus outside of Canada (not really for what you...

    Status of IAD Appeal

    to give a recent timeline as a data point and example: End Of Feb 2020 - IRCC London denied PR renewal due to not meeting residency obligations (IRCC Hamilton had previously issued new PR card, but due to card expiry of old card, and being outside of Canada at that point, IRCC London...

    Interview with IRCC (RO not met, H&C reasons thin) - possible lines of argument?

    thank you all for your replies. I would like to fully return to Canada and establish myself there again. I understand that many people go through enormous hardship to get and retain their PR status, and I know that fully moving back would increase my chances. However, by the sounds of it, in my...

    Interview with IRCC (RO not met, H&C reasons thin) - possible lines of argument?

    Hi everybody, is there any feedback / any experiences from previous IRCC interviews regarding how to persuade and convince the IRCC officers in an interview, when RO are not met and H&C reasons are rather weak too? Do other outside factors matter in the decision, like: - the original...

    PR renewal was successful, but PRTD was refused, but still re-entry visa was issued

    Hi again to everybody, I don't mean to drag this threat on for too long, but still wanted to check if there is any feedback / any experiences from previous IRCC interviews regarding how to persuade and convince the IRCC officers in an interview, when RO are not met and H&C reasons are rather...

    PR renewal was successful, but PRTD was refused, but still re-entry visa was issued

    Thank you again for the quick reply. From your responses, it all seems to lead to the same likely result of me loosing the PR status eventually... which is a shame as I've been a PR for almost 11 years and I had really hoped to keep it (and I would long be a Canadian Citizen if my country of...

    PR renewal was successful, but PRTD was refused, but still re-entry visa was issued

    Thank you very much for all your replies. 2 more question if I may: 1) I have the invite to IRCC Hamilton where they have my card 'ready' (given the PRTD was in process, I had to ask to postpone the date but they replied immediately saying they will give me a new appointment). During this...

    PR renewal was successful, but PRTD was refused, but still re-entry visa was issued

    So, if/when IRCC issues a 1yr card, do they also tell you that they started the process to revoke PR status? Why wouldn't they just revoke the status as the decision of the PR Card renewal in the first place? If one appeals the process to revoke, and wins, does one then get a proper 5 year...

    PR renewal was successful, but PRTD was refused, but still re-entry visa was issued

    Hi, and thank you very much for your reply. I am not quite sure I understand though, what is the point of a 1 yr PR card. By the end of the one year, I won't mathematically be able to come to the 730 days in the last 5 years (because the bulk of my days in Canada in the previous 5 years was...

    PR renewal was successful, but PRTD was refused, but still re-entry visa was issued

    In March 2019, I applied for a PR Cards renewal in Toronto. In the PR Renewal application I had calculated and stated that I had not met the residency obligations of 730 days (missed it by 45 days), due to extensive travel outside of Canada (not proper settling or working anywhere else though )...

    medical done but dont request for passport submission. and passport expire soon.

    ok, you should definitely renew the passport, will make things easier later. Maybe you should also check that they have actually received the medical. Sounds like it's been quite long.

    include Common Law partner into application afterwards?

    to PMM: I thought about the 'sponsorship' solution, but I kind of don't wanna depend in my application on my girlfriend. It's just that I wanna be granted PR based on my application and not based on the fact that my girlfriend happens to be Canadian etc... also, we don't have imminent plans to...

    Uk Police Clearance

    After the introduction of the "simplified application process" you don't need the UK police certificate any more at the time you apply. Once CIC has asked you to send in you documents, you go to a police station somewhere near to where you live. Depending on which nationality you are you show...
