Hello experts
We (our family of four) became PRs in Sep 2008. We landed in Aug 2008 and left after one month. We never visited Canada for the next 4 yrs 11 months. We then returned to Canada just one month before our cards were to expire since my husband got a job here. Now we have been living here for the past 10 months wanting to complete our time of 730 days before we can apply for PR card renewal. I really wish to visit my parents in my home country but my PR card expired nine months ago so I cannot come back by flight. I have a US visitors visa. I have read on this forum that you can cross the US Canada land border just by showing your landing papers. What I want to ask you experts is that is it OK to do so. I mean is it legal to do this. I mean I wouldn't be doing anything wrong, right? t can deduct the days I spent outside Canada before renewing my PR card.
