5 years ago when i applied for a PR card renewal, it only took 3 weeks to get my pr card in the mail as i had to send it via regular mail to apply. I applied for another renewal last Oct 17, 2024 online. Got it in 2 weeks in the mail this time. The inspect tool information was not helpful. It even show that i need to submit a primary identification but i was never emailed in regards to that all. No email confirmation, i cannot track it online no matter what i do. I ended up requesting for the application number online as the ircc over the phone just said that they are still working on September submission and refused to give me the info.i should have just checked the mail as it was already there.phew…i kept reading this forum and it made me nervous as i was so stupid to reapply so late for the renewal… my pr card expired months ago and i have a ticket to fly this December to the US….I am so happy that it was a quick one.

I could not attach my application as well. It attached the old one i applied last 2019. That is why i emailed them to get my application number hoping to be able to track it. I tried all 3 ways to track its progress to no avail. Which is why i was surprised that i got my pr card in the mail in 2 weeks. They never sent any email either.
Wow congratz Ruger this was super fast. Since you mentioned your PR card expired months ago, I am in a similar situation. What supporting documents did you submit to make sure everything was super fast and on track and did you had to renew after few months to meet to PR residency obligations?
I do not have issue with the residency obligation, i only left the country for like a month and a half at most for the last 5 years, i just got so busy with work and totally forgot about renewing it till i got reminded i have to fly this december to the US.
documents i submitted are:
for pictures …..get both digital copy and paper copy and then scan the paper copy with the information required for the back of the picture part.
for identification…i just submitted my passport.
for residency obligation…just NOA and T4 for the last 5 years.
That makes perfect sense. Does T4 have to be for all 5 years since I had study period in between for couple of years

Thank you my LORD, and thank you to ALL.
Congratz Arasco, This seems to be pretty streamlined. What supporting docs did you had to submit and did you have well over 730 days or just right on the mark when you submitted your application for the update and did you do it yourself and applied through some Immigration agent
Hello Tspot,
I did submit copy of my old PR card, copy of my driver Alberta license, copy of Health card, Copy of my Valid passport, and made sure to respond all the required qustion as well as consent declaration, Photo as requiered with proof of studio. NO T4, not NOA. Résidence Obligation completed with 397 days out of Canada in 5 years... I did it my self online.
@Ruger
I am about to fill out my PR card renewal application, and I have two questions:
1. In question 4.1, regarding address history, I entered the date when I started living at my current address. But in the “To” field, what date should I enter if it’s my current address?
2. In question 4.2, for my employment history, I indicated the start date of my current job in the “From” field. What should I put in the “To” field if I am still employed there?
Thank you in advance for your help.
