Hi,

My Situation.

I am working in Closed Work Permit in Canada. My Family is In India.
I submitted for PR (with Family) and received AOR.
Now my Contract is ending and I need to go back to India to join my India base location.

My Question:
1. Can I go back to India and wait for my PR sent to me there?
2. What I need to do for that (send a mail to IRCC)?
3. Is there any criticality involved here?

I read in many forums that I may not be allowed to do so....!!

Please help with advice.

Yes, you can go back to India.

Raise a CSE once you have moved back and update CIC with your latest address.

3. Is there any criticality involved here?
No

According to this link - http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=248&top=28

Yes. However, if you leave Canada while your application is being processed, you must meet all the admissibility rules before being allowed back into Canada.
If you leave Canada and want to return, you must have all the required documents to enter. This can include:

If you are unable to return to Canada, we could determine that you abandoned your application. In that case, we will not process it.

My Question: The above paragraph is from CIC website. According to the last bolded line, if we do not return to Canada, our application will be rejected. Any comment on this?
