Applying for PRTD

[MIKE1999]

Hi,, My kind compliments to all the seniors.
Please advise me on the following :-
As a dependent under my father, I had my PR Card which was issued in 2006 & expired in 2011. Due to old age & sickness of my grandparents back at home my parents could not permanently reside in Canada and had not met the residency requirement. Since I was a minor so I had to follow my parents. Now I have turned up 18 and I wish to apply for P.R.T.D so I may go to Canada and continue my studies over there and then serve Canada like many other Canadians.
Thanks and best regards.

Hi

You can apply for a PRTD based on the fact that you were removed from Canada as a minor. Though it's not a guarantee, at 18 years old, you have a very good chance.

Now I have turned up 18 and I wish to apply for P.R.T.D so I may go to Canada and continue my studies over there and then serve Canada like many other Canadians.

As mentioned, you should have a very good chance of getting PR TD on H&C reasons, which would allow you to return to Canada and immediately renew your PR card.

The earlier you apply for PR TD after turning 18, the better your chances will be.

Welcome to the club, I too have a similar case as you(was removed as a minor). I had submitted the application for a PRTD on the 19th of January and one month has gone by but the status of my application is still "Being processed".

If you need any further help, let me know

@jignesh72 My recollection is Harry99 got his PRTD, but it took him quite a while. If waiting is not your thing then the land border is an option as it allows you to dictate the timeline.

when applying for a PRTD, they ask you to submit a paper to explain your reasons why you have been outside Canada all these years.
Since you were a minor and had to follow your parent, I am sure they would be understanding and there is a big chance you will get your PRTD.
