PRTD processing time from India
- Thread starter Pjk1
- Start date
I finally receive my prtd stamped with passport on jan 10. I guess with all the holidays involved they actually took 24-25 days. I had to cancel the previous flight and book a new one.
If someone is planning to apply it make sure you book your flight atleast 30 days after your application excluding the holidays.
I am not sure about the the humanitarian grounds cases but I was without my first Pr cArd. Hope this helps.

hello guys,
i am in a same situation too.
need to get PRTD
lost my pr card when i was in canada, now the VFS jalandhar is giving time of 60 days
thinking of going to VFS chandigarh/ delhi for better processing time
but i had another thing in mind as i have the US visa so i was thinking to fly to US then enter the canada via land as it doesn't require the PR card
Has any one tried this route before is that a better idea to go via US or there might be any problem

Recently I got PRTD recently from VFS Bangalore, sharing my experience here.
I was working in Canada on a Work Permit and activated my PR in mid Dec. My vacation plan in India was for one month from Christmas to Jan 20. Since I didn't have PR Card, I had to apply for PRTD to re-enter Canada.
Date Applied (VFS Bangalore - in person) - Dec 28
Date application was sent to Canada Consulate in Bangalore - Dec 28
PRTD Approved/Stamped - Jan 3
Passport Received through Courier - Jan 5
While applying VFS Agent told me that it'll take 10-15 working days to get it. But it just took 3 working days(excluding Jan 1 holiday) to approve the PRTD. I got multiple entry PRTD with 2 years validity (Jan 2018 to Jan 2020).
I had written a cover letter explaining the need for PRTD and it's urgency as I had to get back to work. I had provided docs such as my MSP Receipts, Provincial ID Cards, flight tickets etc.

I was waiting for my first PR Card. But still I don;t see anywhere in CIC website that we need to submit FIR to get PRTD.
I was waiting for my first PR card and had to travel back to India, so I had to apply for PRTD for my return.
