Can I apply for OHIP and study with an expired PR card

[Ghassan.sultan]

Hi All
Can you please help me regarding my inquiries.

I am a PR, but my PR card expiry is 22 Sep 2017 and I still have to study outside Canada in University and I can't permanently reside in Canada until I finish my study in Jun 2017.
My plan is to enter Canada in Aug 2017, by that date I will not met the 2-year requirement for renewal of my PR card (only 5 weeks totally I spent in Canada) which mean I will either wait 2 years till I become eligible for renewal or I will apply on humanitarian and compassionate ( H&C ) grounds as I have Canadian son.
My inquiries are:-
-Can I apply for OHIP with an expired PR card
-Can I apply to study in University with an expired PR card.
-Is "having a Canadian son" have high likelihood to success in applying on humanitarian and compassionate ( H&C ) grounds to renew my PR.

Your help is highly appreciated in advance.

My guess is you'll be reported for not meeting your RO's and with only 5 weeks in Canada... I don't think going to University outside Canada makes an H&C case - from reading on the forum. Not sure about your "Canadian son" though.

Interesting.

So knowing you don't meet the RO's already you want to apply for health care? You're not even here.
