Dear Members,
I recently granted protected refugee status and I would like to apply for the PR for myself inside Canada, and my family members which are outside Canada. I will do the application by myself as I can not afford the lawyers fees. Can some one please summarise me the process. If you do not mind to share me the online link so I can start filling the application and submit it online.

I really appreciate each input it will be highly appreciated.

Have a great day.

No need to hire a lawyer to apply for PR. Try to contact the settlement organizations in your area and hopefully they will do it for you for free.

Thanks @Newday8765 for your reply. Actually I would like to do it by myself as I don't have time to go to any organisation as I am at work all the time. So I can fill the forms after my duty. Is it doable by myself or I really need an organization to help? This is why I am asking for the link and the process.

You can do it but getting a consultation from them would be a great thing just to avoid any possible mistakes.

Thanks for the advise. I will try to find any settelment organization in my area. I am not sure as I am new in Canada and do not have much information about this process and my friends and connections are very limited.

Hi members,
I checked online how I can apply for PR and what I got is to prepare the forms and to mail them to the IRCC as per this link https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5205-applying-permanent-residence-within-canada-protected-persons-convention-refugees.html#5205E6

The question is: is there any way for convention refugee to apply for PR ONLINE. I mean without mailing the application?? As I know the online application is faster than paper application.

Any advise would be really appreciated.

Word of advise , please fill the forms online and submit. Please apply for only your self for now. Do not apply for your family until you become a permanent resident and then you can apply for spousal sponsorship for them.

My spouse apply for us same time and we have been stuck for 5years now

Thanks for you advises. But the IRCC mentioned that if the main applicant did not mention his/her family members in the application he/she could not sponsor them in later stages..

Any more feedback would be highly appreciated.

Hi! Did you find the link to apply online or is it through mail only?

Hi members,
I am going to upload my dependents photo in the PR portal. As instructed, the photographer address and date should be printed in the back side. How I can do that if my dependents are living outside Canada.

Please advise for anyone who was in the same situation.

Thanks in advance.
