Hi All,
I have a question.
Our family received permanent residency (PR) in Canada in 2023. My son, who is 17 years old now, may not be able to fulfill the 760 days residency requirement in Canada due to needing to return to our home country for services. Will he be able to renew his PR card? Rest of the family will be able to meet the requirement.

Thanks in advance

The age that matters is the age he will be once it's time to renew PR in 2028. Assuming he is 17 now, I believe at that point he will no longer be a minor which means he will need to meet the residency obligation in order to renew PR.

Any chance that parents can apply for citizenship (and include him) before he reaches 18?

Minors (under 18) applying for citizenship - Canada.ca

What are the ways for him to renew? If he manages to enter Canada before the expiry of PR card then what can be done? Any suggestions?

If he manages to do that, then he should remain in Canada without leaving until he meets the residency obligation and then apply to renew his PR card.

Appears he may be doing Singapore military service for 2 years as a permanent resident. He should easily be able to complete the 2 years and still meet RO.
