When you mentioned that you never applied for a PR card, I guess you meant to say it was not "renewed" yet. You may be having the expired PR card with you and ideally you should give a good cover letter detailing these aspects.Amarpreetd said:
no i never applied for one.....i became landed immigrat in 2000....no pr cards were issued back then..ajithpl said:
Prepare a good explanation letter for citizenship application, including landed documents, expired passports and anything else that could help
Apply for a new passport ASAP
I recommend apply for PR card simultaneously with Citizenship application (I guess some documents and calculated time should be the same)
