Hi @tca_2018 , are you also facing a similar situation like the rest of us on this thread? If yes, can you tell if you have actual travel plans this year or applying for PRTD as a safety net. I am hearing conflicting opinions about how PRTD is meant for immediate travelers. Utterly confused.
My new job is starting from mid-september so I don't have a choice but to apply for PRTD. Do you have a window for your travel? If that window is next year, I think you should wait and see if you can get the actual PR card.
