- Start date
Hi,
Anybody here who applied for PRTD from Riyadh? What is the average processing time? It has been 5 weeks now and havent heard anything.
Have you checked with them to see what the delay is? Planning on going in May and looking like I will need the PRTD but hearing it is taking you this long does not bode well.
Is it based on H&C or are you compliant with your RO?Hi,

It is also taking long with me.
I meet the residency obligation because I am accompanied by my Canadian wife.
I am not sure if there is any way to contact them

How long have you been waiting since you applied? Did you reach out to the embassy to see what the delay is?
It is now 6 weeks. There is no way to reach the embassy except through webform which i did today.How long have you been waiting since you applied? Did you reach out to the embassy to see what the delay is?
Ill wait for their response
Am I correct in assessing that ordinary subjects of Saudi Arabia are being discriminated against and stalled in processing of the PR card renewal application?
P.S. If true, I find it particularly ironic: Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is created by United Kingdom (was part of the strategy to break up Ottoman Empire centuries ago), and the Royal House/King are greeted all over the Europe, UK and US as heroes and closest allies, with Prince Charles dancing sabre dance with royals. Yet, when it comes to ordinary citizens, people wait for months to get their PR cards renewed? Is it just low level racism and bigotry of app processors, or some kind of nefarious and double edged policy? Interesting.

How much time did you spend in Canada with your wife after your landed as a PR before going abroad? Not all time abroad with a spouse counts towards RO.Hello

We spent very few days every year we travel to canada for vacation only. Most of our time is spent in Saudi with my Spouse who is Canadian.How much time did you spend in Canada with your wife after your landed as a PR before going abroad? Not all time abroad with a spouse counts towards RO.
Where does it say that not all times count? As I understood all days spent abroad with Canadian spouse count.
Not if you never established yourselves in Canada first. It says that days can count if the PR is accompanying the Canadian abroad. She was accompanying you abroad. It will be up to IRCC to determine whether your time together counts.We spent very few days every year we travel to canada for vacation only.

Hmmm, I hope they decide to count it. As I have put all my hopes on this. I can only now wait and see.
Good luck, let me know what you are told. I may have to delay my visit there if it is taking over 6 weeks to get the PRTD.It is now 6 weeks. There is no way to reach the embassy except through webform which i did today.

What is your status in terms of Residency Obligation? Do you meet it?Good luck, let me know what you are told. I may have to delay my visit there if it is taking over 6 weeks to get the PRTD.
Not really. There is "who accompanies whom" rule, it was posted on this sub-forum several times. If she accompanied you (as opposed to you accompanying your Canadian citizen spouse), then legally days spent outside of Canada would not count towards RO. There are instances where CIC errs and grants PR renewal despite the rule (I don't know whether it's done on purpose or due to adjudicating officer not knowing the rules), but by law there is a distinction and what you were told above is correct.We spent very few days every year we travel to canada for vacation only. Most of our time is spent in Saudi with my Spouse who is Canadian.
