Myself, my wife and my son, we landed in Canada on Sep 25, 2008 and then returned back after 21 days. Had plans to go back in 3 years. Tried for jobs but no luck. Now our PR cards are expiring. Is there any way now. Please advise. Thanks.

Here are your options:
1) Give up PR and let the card expired;
2) Bring family to Canada before their PR card expires and financially support them while you work overseas. When your PR card expired, your spouse in Canada can always sponsor (as long as she meet her residency obligation) you for PR again.

I would like to add that option #2 would only work if your wife and son manage to sneak in without getting reported. They can then stay for two years without leaving for even a single day, and without even trying to renew their PR cards (this is important; they should NOT try to renew their PR cards before they have 731 days within the last five years preceding the date of PR card renewal application).

Thanks. I wish to add that I have another child who was born after we landed in canada and returned in 2008. He is without RP. Now if I plan to send my wife, she cannot leave our second child alone. Please advise if RP expires, is there any way to re-apply again. Thanks.

She can leave the 2nd child with you, not alone? She would however have to stay for 2 years straight before she can sponsor you and the child and that is only if she is allowed in in the first place without getting reported.

If this is not an option for you, you have the same opportunity to apply for PR again as everybody else. The immigration classes or rules may have changed since you applied the first time. You will have to check the CIC website and find out if you qualify for anything, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/apply.asp

Before you apply for a new PR, you must first officially renounce or lose the PR you currently have. You can take care of this by applying for travel documents, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/travel.asp You should write on your application that you are not actually requesting a travel document as you know that you do not meet the requirements and that you wish to renounce your PR so you can apply again.

Please do not repeat your question. Your application for PR was not turn down since you can still appeal for h & c.

If you lose your PR, your wife can sponsor you again.

Hello Members
I became Permanent residence of Canada day I arrived i.e. 13th July 2016.
I will be staying in Canada until December 19th 2016 says about 159 day’s from 13th July 2016 and will return to DUBAI for next 1.5 years 15 months from December 19th 2016 onwards.
My question is as to keep my PR status valid I must stay in Canada for minimum of 2 years out of 5 years. So if I come back in 2018 July will I be able to renew my PR card without any problem or I may be short of 730 days.
My PR card is valid until 2021 August
I understand, if I arrive in 2018 July and then stay back until 2021 I am good to go, please advice
July 13th 2016 –to- 19th December 2016 = days physically present is 159
Now from 2018 July to 2021 August = it will be more than 730 days as per calculator it is 2018=171 days, 2019= 365, 2020=366 & 2021=232 so in total will be 1134 counting from 2018 year and I believe my current stay i.e. from July 13th2016 –to- 19th December 2016 with 159 days will also be counted.
Number of days physically present per calendar year towards my PR renewal will be 1294 days. Please correct me please
