Hi. My daughter is applying for her travel document bec she is no longer a minor, just having been graduated from college. Her mother and I removed her from Canada when she was only 13 years old. In the humanitarian and compassionate grounds, should we write the reasons for being removed or just state that she was removed by her parents as a minor? Thank you in advance for your response!
H&C grounds question. Please help

Thank you Leon! So to clarify, she'll just write that she was removed as a minor by her parents and now wishes to return as an independent adult? Will the immigration ask why she was removed? It was a financial reason, but her mother stayed in canada. Over the years we got separated and now she doesn't want to be "involved" in this situation as she put it. That's why I'm asking if she had to put the reason behind for being removed and if her mother's background will be investigated? Thank you again!
Its always a good idea to read up on the experience of others...below is a thread with detail on a successful TD application by a PR removed as a minor.GerryG said:Also can we include her high school and college diploma for the supporting documents?

Hi! Please can somebody advice as to what are the steps of getting your PR renewed once you land in canada on humanatrian grounds. Got PRTD and have lived in canada for 50 days in the last 5 years.
Use the application form found here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/prcard.asp Provide a certified copy of your travel document and a letter from yourself stating your story and how you came to get that travel document.Luckyducky said:Hi!

It would be safer for you not to leave Canada for the next 2 years in order to meet the residency requirements. The H&C grounds have excused you for not meeting the requirements in the past 5 years but you still need to meet them in the future. If you leave Canada again as soon as you get your PR card and then end up losing it and are in the situation again of being outside Canada maybe a year or 2 from now having to apply for another TD and do not meet the requirements, immigration may not look so kindly upon your case.
My original is on my passport, do not want to send my passport. Do I fill up the for renewal or new PR.
Leon, I am in the same exact situation. What if they reject me for my PR renewal? Will they deport me? The travel document I received was actually a R-1 visa that states that I am a permanent resident and not an actual document. In addition, they never stated what grounds they issued me the document for. I just received a mail that had the visa stamped on my passport with the documents I initially sent them.Leon said:Use the application form found here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/prcard.asp Provide a certified copy of your travel document and a letter from yourself stating your story and how you came to get that travel document.

In case the travel document was not issued on humanitarian grounds, you would be safer to wait for 2 years before you apply to renew your PR card.meganpeter said:Leon, I am in the same exact situation.
