Could I leave Canada after I apply for the PR card since I have a valid PR card until November?
A day trip to the U.S. perhaps? Hard to imagine that being a problem. Apologies in advance for . . . well, here it is . . .
Canada does NOT restrict a PR's international travel. Whether you can travel to a country outside Canada depends on the laws of the destination country, and that country's policies and practices. Generally this depends on what passport the PR has, not on whether they carry a valid PR card. But some countries may have special allowances for Canadian PRs (perhaps the U.S. for example).
OK. I confess. Yes, I am being rather picky. I realize you are not actually asking whether a PR can ("
could") leave Canada. My excuse (like many typical forum participants, I have plenty of excuses; moreover, I am not shy about admitting or making them) is there are good reasons for being so picky.
Assuming you are really asking what impact there will be,
FOR YOU, if you travel outside Canada after applying for a new PR card, the main reason for being so picky is
there is NO simple answer, it DEPENDS, and it depends on a number of things including some contingencies (some things that have not yet occurred). Big one is whether you continue to be in RO compliance while you are outside Canada.
Beyond that, since your query here is more or less a continuation of a query you made last month, and since that discussion revolves around some of the key factors relevant to this query (again, assuming you are not actually asking if you can travel outside Canada, but rather asking about how that might affect
YOU, your status in Canada), I will offer more of a response there:
