Hello,

I am going to apply for a travel document to return to Canada.

Does anyone know that I need to submit the 'original one' or I can use a copy one for below evidences?
Am I supposed to give the original one for COPR & CRA notice of assessments? These are 2 very important documents. Will the visa office return them back to me?

Evidence of your permanent resident status in Canada, such as:
• a Record of Landing or Confirmation of Permanent Residence or, if the document was lost or stolen, a police report documenting the
circumstances of the loss,
• an expired permanent resident card or, if your card was lost or stolen, a police report documenting the circumstances of the loss,
• employment documents,
• financial documents,
• Revenue Canada Notice of Assessment forms,
• evidence of receipt of benefits from Canadian government programs,
• rental agreements,
• club memberships, etc


Thank you!
 
Send photocopies. Do NOT send your original COPR to anyone, EVER! The NOA's can be replaced quite easily by CRA so those are not as much a concern.
 
Hello,

I had a similar question too.

Filling up the forms for PR Travel Document. Do we need to send original expired PR card?

Thoughts?

No, you do not need to send your original PR card.

Hi jppbaku, Samsay,

What is the status of your PRTD application. Did you get one and in how many days.
 
How long does it take to get the travel document from the UAE? I might be in the same boat for my wife later this year...want to make sure I have enough time and correct paper work for everything.

Thanks
 
Hello All,

Apologies for the long silence.

Submitted documentation for a travel document on 24th November. Since there was no update online, planned to visit the embassy on 17th December.

Explain the entire situation about the travel plans after 2 days and the proof that PR renewal application is in progress in Canada.

The officer did quite understand the situation and I received the travel document on 18th December.

Regards,
Sam.

I have submitted all proofs( my landing COPR copy, job resignation letter and my stay in Canada with bank account with job offer letter along with PRTD application. Please advice if still they dont process in 10 days, how to approach them and explaining personally. Thanks!
