    PR Valid for 5 Years and Returning to Canada before the last two years ends

    @missedTheGCBus I had the same situation as you. Instead of 60 days of buffer that you had, I had only 25 days. To remove the risk of non-compliance, I avoided any travel and still avoiding for close to 23 months now. I agree with all the points mentioned by @armoured

    “Proof showing that you meet the residency obligation…” now mandatory?

    @dpenabill Sould I raise a Web-Form and attach the residency proofs to make sure that the officer looking at my PR Card renewal file can find the documents to confirm that I meet the residency obligation. Of course I am planning to do this once I complete the 730 days within Canada.

    “Proof showing that you meet the residency obligation…” now mandatory?

    sorry my reply was to @dpenabill. What I mean to say is that past 5 years should not be applicable to me since I became a PR less than five years ago.

    “Proof showing that you meet the residency obligation…” now mandatory?

    I visited Canada for the first time as a landed PR on Aug 10th 2018. I could not have spent any time in Canada between June 6, 2018 and August 9, 2018 since I did not have any any kind of Canada Visa (PR, Visitor or any other).

    Safe Time to apply for PR Card renewal before the first five-year anniversary of PR landing date.

    I have no travel planned in the near future and that is the reason, I am going ahead with submitting the application for PR card renewal.
