URGENT PRTD help please!!!

[kabillis]

I am a citizen of Australia (hold valid passport) and permantly moved back to Aus
I am also a PR of Canada, due to my husband being a canadian , has citizenship and canada passport

we booked travel to canada for a 10 day trip oct 1-10th. we assumed i would be able to enter with my aus passport.
not the case, PR card is expired.
we have applied for PRTD, what is everyones experience. how long did it take to receive?
can i enter canada with an expired PR card, will they let me in?

also when we submitted on line, we never received a confirmation email or anything. any feedback would be great. thanks!!

We have also just realised that we did not submit every single page on our passport, we only copies picture pages. has anyone done this before, how can we upload the documents to our application again? thankyou, this is so stressful.

So assuming that you can use your days spent with your spouse (citizen) outside of Canada to meet your RO, you should be able to get your PRTD. However, I am not sure about the timeline of getting it approved.

You cannot enter with expired PR card via air. The airline most likely won't let you board the flight.

Yes, we hope that we can get a PRTD as im still living with a canadian citizen abroad.
Does anyone have any idea on processing times at the moment, from australia?

If it's treated as a standard application then it should only take a few week. If non standard, then it's a dice roll.
