My parents landed as immigrants through my sponsorship in 2018 and they have stayed in Canada for a total of 1 year. Prior to the pandemic, they left for Taiwan in November 2019. The pandemic was declared in the early 2020 and they were not able to return to Canada. Due to my mom's immune compromise, the doctor here advised that it is better they stay in Taiwan until the pandemic is over. Last year, my mother was diagnosed of kidney failure and started the dialysis treatment and they couldn't leave Taiwan due to the kind of dialysis treatment she was receiving. Their PR cards will be expiring this year in July and I would like to know if it is better for them to return to Canada before the cards expire and plea our case during the renewal process or just let the cards expire and later apply for the PRTD and justify at that time why we couldn't fulfill the 730 days requirement. Is there a risk for them to return to Canada before the cards exprie knowing that we did not fulfill the RO? Thanks
