Hi Simba112,
what is usual PR approval time after we apply for PR and then when we can get PR card for travel ?
Hi there..
I think this piece of information will be useful for you.

Loss of refugee status (cessation)

Canada offers protection to refugees because they have shown that they are in danger in their home country. However, Canadian government has the right to remove someone’s refugee status if it believes that the person accepted the protection of their home country (known as “re-availment”) after obtaining refugee status in Canada.


This could happen if a person:


  • Travels to their home country (even for a short visit)
  • Travels using the passport of their home country
  • Applies for a new passport from their home country
If a person has done one of the above-mentioned things, it may not automatically be a problem. It is up to the Canada Border Services Agency to decide which cases to pursue. If they pursue the case, and the person loses their refugee status, they may also automatically lose their permanent residence (if they have it).


As this is a very serious issue, it is important to understand which actions to avoid. For more information please see the CCR's resource: Basic Information about Cessation.

You don't need pr card to travel. PR approval time is about 23 months. however you can apply for RTD once you got positive NOD but rtd took 6 month to 1 year depend on your situation and purpose of visit Good luck

Hi Herealone, how did it go
Hi Legooo
It went really well and no time wasting. Also, no questions were asked about my claim. Got my work permit and brown paper on the spot. Infact I also got my SIN the same day (there is a service ontario office in the building)
Now, I start looking for a job

To Everyone,
Someone told me if I don't have Canadian work experience on my resume, it might be hard getting a job. How true is this please?
