Not sure, but suspect you cannot. Others will, hopefully, confirm or correct.Hello everyone. I got my PR card while I was abroad. Since I don't want my card sent... Can I request a PRTD to travel to Canada for this one time? After this I would be using my PR card to travel.
Thank you
It says here that "You can’t have a third party mail your PR card to you while you’re outside Canada"Why?
Legally you are correct, but most immigrants don't careIt says here that "You can’t have a third party mail your PR card to you while you’re outside Canada"

Ah, that is one thing IRCC says that I'd ignore. You very much can have it sent by courier.It says here that "You can’t have a third party mail your PR card to you while you’re outside Canada"

I think it is but can't confirm. I mean, if they tell you that you can't send a PR card, that's your only choice - right?Thanks to everyone but my original question is:
Can I get a PRTD while having a valid PR card?
Ponga thinks this is not possible. Hope someone else can confirm.
If you don’t have PR card with you right now and you are out of country, YES you can get PRTD . Generally speaking from experience.Thanks to everyone but my original question is:

Yes, you can. You may forget it home or it might get lost, for many reasons.Thanks to everyone but my original question is:

I think the real questions here are:Yes, you can. You may forget it home or it might get lost, for many reasons.
Happened with one of my Friend. He went back home without PR card as PR card was still in processing that time . PR card dispatched while he was outside Canada to his address. Applied PRTD from India , took 3 weeks to get PRTD . Came back to Canada with PRTD . Got his PR card . Travelled with same PR card to US many times .I think the real questions here are:
-how long it will take to get a PRTD and whether that makes sense in light of a valid PR card just a courier away;
-whether the PR card that is in the possession of the applicant but in Canada will be cancelled as a result of applying as they would do for a lost card (and I do not know the answer to that).
Thanks for confirming that, makes sense, just haven't seen a specific case.Happened with one of my Friend. He went back home without PR card as PR card was still in processing that time .
