I can't remember what we used in the interim after landing, but be aware that it isn't really 3 FULL months. I landed on the 27th and went to Service BC the next day to start the paperwork for MSP. The three days left of that month counted as a month:

Not only no reason, but you probably won't even get a citizen certificate due tonhaving. A Canadian birth certificate. My spouse and one child were born out of Canada so have citizen certa. Another child was born in and has just birth certificate.

It may have gotten more restrictive, but when my spouse sponsored me 10+ years ago it was very easy... simply declaring intent to return. We didn't have rental agreement, school registration, Canadian bank accounts, job prospects, or any of the things that are now recommended.

Why do you think Canada is a better place for you? Anyway, if you can get across the border without being flagged, and then manage without official Canadian ID for two years without leaving, you might be able to get back into compliance.

Anyone else apply recently? With all of the posts about PRTD, I'd think there would be many.

Hanks , scappa. I have some bills and insurance paperwork, which will hopefully count. Keep us posted how it goes.

For anyone who has applied and hopefully received a PRTD recently (particularly if accompanying a citizen), what did you provide, and how much documentation? I have been abroad for several years now.

Thanks, that would have been helpful for the PR renewal.

You can check the average time here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/EnGLIsh/information/times/index.asp It is 63 days as of now, and. I looked the other day it was 58.

If approved for a PRTD, particularly when abroad accompanying a Canadian citizen, do you receive notice for the actual number of days that you were determined to be resident?

This. I landed years back, but just looked at the COPR and old passport, and this is what happened - other than officer not initialing by document number under stamp in passport. No stamp on COPR, just pen answers, and officer's signature.

Everyone has different expectations, I suppose, when I first landed I took the jobs that I could get. They weren't glamorous, and requires standing for most of shift, physical work. I didn't want to starve, so I got a second job... then later I was able to move into a better full time position...

Second job, earning more money while gaining additional experience to get higher paying job.

If the parens are in the question, "yes" would make sense for someone who had never served.

Is it the same as the original entry visa, of do they put your picture on it?

Did this work for you?

I have gotten hazy answers regarding this in the past, so hoping new people are on board who may have gone through it recently (or seasoned with advice). For a returning PR (accompanying Canadian citizen spouse outside of Canada) when the PR card is long expired. Are there any other options...

Get a different accountant.

Send a transcript for the courses you completed.

This makes sense. Simply going off the SIN (or print out even) would t be enough. If there was other ID, that might be appropriate. In my case, all I had was foreign ID and PR card, so it makes sense they would check it.
