Could you please guide me on where you got the guarantor form and how much you paid the lawyer?

Go to service Canada and tell them you don't have a guarantor and need to apply for a RTD. You'll fill in the form and take it to a person who can take commission of oath or lawyer. Look around as prices varies.

Update :

I applied for a new RTD-PR as current expires in Feb 2025.
Oct 2024 - submitted application
November 2024- Called and they said I need new guarantor . I didn't have one so, I used the form from service Canada and got a lawyer to sign it. I sent a new application same day with UPS.
20 November 2024 - Called and they said I need new references , must submit via email provided. I did same day and they fragged application as urgent.
6 December 2024- Called and they said application is in progress, within standard time.
13 December 2024 - Called and they said , waiting for approval.
18 December 2024 - Called and application was approved, CP tracking number provided.
27 December 2024 - Can finally track the application as sent from Ottawa.
30 December 2024 - RTD delivered.

Missed my travel plans but I'm happy to finally get my new RTD with new design. Also, I got my old RTD back as it has US visa.

Congratulations,

When did IRCC shipped out the RTD?

They said that they shipped mine out on December 10th but still I'm not able to track it because they didn't give me any tracking number.

Does anyone know if we can go to the US for one day by car with RTD expiring in 3 months? We have a valid US visa.

Unfortunately, I don't think. Visitors traveling to the U.S. are required to be in possession of RTD/passport that are valid for six months beyond the period of their intended stay in the U.S. More information is here -

Exception countries doesn't apply for RTD holders, but for country passport holders. I tried to travel to US last week for Christmas, assuming the exception applies, but was denied boarding because my RTD was valid only for 4 month.
