My wife has been PR since August, but went abroad for family reasons about 3 months later. Now she's in Korea without a PR card, and applying for a travel document so she can return.
Section 14 asks for activities from the past 5 years. It also says if PR less than 5 years only list activities since PR. I want to be sure we understand this correctly.
If we're only submitting activities for those 3.5 months, then all the records from the past 5 years don't need to be included?
Section 15 asks for time inside Canada over the past 5 years or, if PR less than 5 years only list time since PR. If I understand correctly this is just over 3 months. We have lots of records showing that she was here, but since they are before PR, they don't count? We would leave it off the application, and not include the documents?
Now we are supposed to add up her time in Canada compared to 730 days. She has over 1400 days in the past 5 years, but only 109 since PR. Did she make a terrible mistake leaving before receiving a PR card? We didn't realize this would be a problem.
What can we do? Is "humanitarian grounds" our only option? It all seems so redundant after we already proved everything to qualify for PR...
