Hi Memebers just joined this forum and hope this is the right thread. Let me explain my case:
1. Landed in Canada (me and wife) as PR on Dec 2003 and stayed and worked there till May 2006.
2. Returned to home country but worked for same Canadian employer till 6-7 months more. Then position got closed.
3. Reasons for returning were multiple like - not getting the right paying jobs, struggling to have a kid, old parents, etc.
4. Now I want to renew PR and based on Canadian Immigration official website need to apply for PR Travel Doc (PRTD) I have 11 yrs old kid born in home country
5. Researched on Internet and would like to have a strong H and C grounds
6. Feel below points may make a strong case
a) Maintained ties with Canada through employment, taxes
b) have gained good experience and work for big multi national company which has good presence in Canada now
c) Have necessary funds to support me and family
d) Best interest of Child ( for him to be in Canada and make a better future)
Please provide insights. Thanks
Others can comment but you appear to have been away for 13 plus years so your chances to me seem slim having failed the residency obligation by a significant amount. None of the reasons you state would be grounds in my view for H&C consideration.
Paying taxes not really that relevant to RO and Canada employment would needed to have been a temporary assignment outside of Canada for a Canadian based employer, 13 years not temporary obviously.
H&C tend to be looked at if someone had to care for a terminal or very sick relative with no support in home country . In your case everything to do with failing the RO was a personal choice to leave.
If you apply now for a PRTD it would likely lead to your PR status being revoked.
The only option would seem to be if you have a US visa to try entering via the US land border and hope you are not reported. Then you would need to stay put for 2 years and have no contact with IRCC or attempt to renew your PR card. You could not in this time sponsor anyone such as your child for PR and also the chances of the child getting a TRV could be doubtful.
Other that that if PR is revoked or you renounce you would need you apply again from scratch
Above only my view others may have a different view but does not seem hopeful
