I am a new permanent resident. My PR card was issued with a name error: the family name is printed twice (duplicated). I have already submitted a correction request (IMM 5218) via the IRCC webform, but I have not received the corrected card yet.

I need to travel outside Canada for urgent reasons.

Can I travel with my current PR card that has this error? Will I face any issues when returning to Canada? What documents should I carry with me (e.g., passport, eCoPR, copy of the amendment request)?

Thank you.
