PR travel document for a new PR

[Pitt1234]

Hi,

Has anyone applied for a PR travel document recently? After landing in Canada, if we leave Canada, this document allows entry through a flight or other public transport.

I looked at some threads on this forum but the information is contradictory. The CIC website lists the requirements for PR travel document: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/travel.asp

In the Checklist, they specifically ask for "At a minimum, you must provide:
• two (2) pieces of evidence that show your permanent resident status in Canada; and • information for the five (5) years immediately before the application, such as:
• employment records or pay stubs;
• bank statements;
• Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Notice of Assessment for the five (5) years immediately before the application; • evidence that you received benefits from Canadian government programs;
• rental agreements;
• club memberships;
• or any other documents that are relevant to the determination of your residency obligation."

For those who applied for this document:

1. Were you able to get a PR travel document?

2. How did you resolve the "two (2) pieces of evidence that show your permanent resident status in Canada" requirement? Besides the landing document, what other document did you provide?

3. How much time did it take for you to get a PR travel document?

4. Were you able to get a multiple entry document?

Have you only just landed as PR or has you old PR Card expired?

I will be landing this month end and then leaving Canada soon. The final move will only be in a few months. I have trips planned to and via Canada in the next 40 days which won't be possible without a PR travel document.

Therefore, I was wondering how others managed to get a travel document and the document proofs they provided.
