Hi Leon
I applied for Travel Document but our all papers came back today without PRTD and they are asking additional information on Proof of Permanently Relocating to Canada.
What does that mean and what proof should we submit.
I dont have any Job offer so not resigned yet from my current Job.
Please advice
Thanx
Things like home ownership or one year lease agreement can show as proof of "permanently relocating to Canada"

Do you have friends/relatives in Canada who would be willing to give you a letter showing your family can live with them until you find suitable housing? Otherwise, you can check website listings such as rentbc.com and craiglist to make arrangement. Rental agreement can be done outside Canada via internet.

Isn't it the right of a PR to enter Canada anytime, as long as they can satisfy the 2 years in a rolling 5 years condition? Why do they need this extra documentation?

Hi
I would like to know further when should we apply for our First PR Card, is it immediately after reaching in Canada? As our first PR Card was not made due to photo issue and we are out of Canada almost 2 yrs. 10 month now.
Will there be any issue of Residency obligation?
we will need PR Card for any emergency visit to home country.
We plan relocating in June first week 2013. and we took our Landing in Aug 2010 and PR Card was not made due to photo issue and just got our Travel Doc made.
Thanks

Yes, apply your PR card as soon as you reach Canada. Yes, you would still need to follow the residency obligation to maintain your permanent resident status and obtain valid PR card for traveling overseas.
