So my family applied for Canadian PR over 10 years ago, it was approved and we were sent Canadian PR cards. I was maybe 10 or 12 at the time, I’m now 26. For what ever reason, my parents decided (or maybe were not able) to not fulfill the “live in Canada for 2 years out of a 5 year period” to maintain PR.
We made first landing, stayed for a couple days, then left.
I would like to apply for Canadian PR again via Express Entry now as an adult making my own decisions, but my family did not receive an official loss of status decision from the Canadian Embassy.
I am wondering how I should proceed from here. Can I file a residency obligation appeal to keep my previous PR without that official loss of status decision? Can I even apply for Express Entry while my PR is technically not expired from over 10 years ago?
Is there a way to purposefully make myself lose status so I can start again with Express Entry without leaving the US (currently H1b with no visa stamp due to change of status).
Which is the faster way to gain Canadian PR?
