Hello Experts,

My cousin and family completed landing formalities and received their PR cards in Nov 2019. They stayed for 1 week with me and went back to USA. Now he has got an offer to join a Canadian company in Apr 2021.

As they have been out of Canada for 1 year 4 months, can they simply re-enter using the PR card? Or any additional formalities are required to be completed?

Thank You

No additional requirements. You just enter.

They should check and be up to date on covid requirements - separate from pr. They may be different depending on whether arriving by air or land.

Does your cousin have a SIN (Social Insurance Number) ? He cannot work legally unless he has one.

They plan to enter by land using a one-way rental car. I will be arranging a separate bath attached room in my house for them to quarantine.
