I landed few days ago, but I need to travel overseas and come back (in less than 30 days). How can speeden my PR card process. I checked the CIS website and send my travel itinerary to the fax number they put, but nobody responded so far (they said they will call in 2 business days).
Is there any other way to speeden the process. Like If I go to to Passport Canada office; can they help ???

- When I can renew my SIN card, do I need to wait tell I get my PR card or can do it now..

I had mine in 5 weeks. You should have your PR Card when you get back. Otherwise, you can apply for a travel visa. I was advised to have a friend mail it to me but it was not favorable for me. I didn't wanna lose it by mail not that I didn't trust the mail service but sometimes it happens.
You can apply for SIN using a copy of your COPR attached to your passport. You can just show it to Service Canada office near you. I did it that way and they have accepted it.
