I land
I Went back to india in 2 weeks after landing to take care of my mom. No one else could take care of her due to knee used. I entered back to canada for 1 week in Nov 2019. Tried finding apartments. Then went back to usa in a week to wrap up few things related to work. Came back to canada to drop my first luggage bags off on 22 frb 2020. I went back to usa after a week. I was planning to move to canada for good in March 2020 Then covid started closing down things. Then borders were closed so i couldn't make a move because my employer backed out on the job offer. Now i have a new job but i am falling short of 30 days. I don't want to risk the status by trying to enter through land border and run into issues later.
Thanks for your response. I landed in canada as PR on 23 sep 2017. 5 years anniversary on 23 sep 2022. Today days spent in canada so far are 20.

Your best option is to enter Canada as soon as possible and remain for 2years or compliant with your RO. You are unlikely to be reported with such a minimal amount of time.
Hi: My mother is a permanent residence as of now in Canada. But she is living in back home for the last 4 years. Her PR card has expired in 2018. In the last 5 years, she stayed in Canada only for 6 months. What is her probability to get PRTD? She now wants to come Canada and stay for long time. What type of compelling cases I need to establish to increase the opportunity to get PRTD? She does not have anyone back home to look after her as all her kids are living abroad. She is all alone. Will this living by herself can be used as a compelling case? What compelling case will give more opportunity for PRTD? Please advise.
Hi
1. Pretty low, unless she can demonstrate H&C why she remained outside Canada. Living alone probably won't fly as she has been living alone for the last 5 years.
I agree about loneliness part....but now as getting older and old age sickness, its very difficult to stay any further.....also, another reason for short stay was initially she thought that she can stay with us without our dad (just before her first arrival), my dad passed away. Later my dad's grief could not let her stay here with us. Now, with grief stage away and old age with various sickness and no kids around, its becoming quite impossible for her to stay alone. Previous loneliness and current loneliness situation is different. Any idea how H&C ground I can build in this case?
Not coming to Canada to be with your family and maintain your RO because of grief is not a very good reason. If she wanted to secure her status in Canada as she got older then she should have prioritized remaining in Canada. I assume she didn’t meet her RO for a long time if she didn’t renew her PR card in 2018. All you can do is try getting a PRTD or entering via the US border and plead her case.
