In theory yes in practicality no.. a visa only considered if it has stamp of cancellation on it, airlines has no way of checking and even officer paid no herd to it.. tried and tested a week back ahhaha

I wish i could put snapshot of this.. even i was bothered of this prtd issue.. as my wife had to come back with me and i had pr card and her was still u in typical ircc stuff... but yes u can board using old visa if and only if it does not have cancellation stamp on it.. or else nope and yeaa at border officers don care about will just ask how u boarded the planeWell, thank you for letting us know the actual process but I guess @sid1987's case was possibly an alternative reality. We definitely need to go by the process but Sid did experience something and shared it here...he would get nothing by sharing wrong information... Not like he does it for money.
And @Jaywalker i agree that process and i was under same assumption... but u know wat call air canada and ask them , they will clearly say they have no was of checking validity by ircc system.. and indian immigration official nope.. i can assure you that.. and once u land in canada.. and if u resident and u can prove your identity , by law no immigration officer can stop you from entering.. but yes.. i do agree i took risk as it was emergency and it worked out but if u guys have ample time in hand get prtd..
btw my old visa still says valid in ircc profile and has no cancellation stamp on it...
And yeaa when you come on old visa.. they will put a stamp on passport and say prrrrrrrr.. heheheh ... btw toronto airport is primitive .. usually i land in ottawa.. and there pr or no pr .. no manuap check all kiosk..
Guys is https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/canada-case-cas-eng.aspx the valid link for the CSE form? When i am trying to submit the form nothing happens.
Btw people who have doubts there are few tgread in this forum which prople confirmed travellin on old visa
You had pr card already right. Do they still check for visa if you have the card.
Naaaaa not for me they just saw and said ok... for my wife they did .. and at toronto they didn even bother .. just saw my card and for my wife copr and one ques how did u board

Quite a pointless and generic response, so can't really say the speed to respond matters over much!
