an independant PR as far as no longer being a dependant of your mother given you are 26 and even if the old 22 age rule was in place you would no longer be a dependant.
 
If you are a permanent resident, you are independent.

For what reason would you need this for?
 
Reasons: he is a permanent resident and not any dependent status and he is 26 years old.

true but still doesnt answer why a 26 year old needs to ask the question in the first place if the OP wants to share, maybe is just curiosity or looking to still be clasified as a dependant for some other reason.
