Hi Leon and senior members
I need urgent help please!!!!!!!
I did not complete my residency requirement in Canada. My PR card will expire in one month and am about to book a ticket to come back. I have US visa too. My dilemma is that if I come through land border, my passport will not be stamped. Could my passport not being stamped, can create problems for me when I apply for PR card renewal after 2 years? Please help!
Thank you so much
 
Your worry should be re-entry without being reported so really an entry stamp or not is the least of your concern. CBSA will scan your PR card, possibly your passport and may stamp your passport especially if you get sent to Secondary Inspection. If you use the automated gates at some of the major Canadian airports you may slide by the agent at the end of the gate but he/she may dispatch you to Secondary Inspection for whatever legally justifiable reason they have.

In your shoes I would deal with the re-entry at PR Card renewal time...CBSA will have your entry logged even if you don't get a physical stamp. Keep a record of your travel so hang onto those boarding cards.
