Hello

I am in Canada and have been granted permanent residency. However my PR card has been lost in the post. I am about to complete the declaration and try to get a replacement but I don’t think it will arrive in time before I need to travel back to uk. I understand that I can get a PR travel document once back in the uk. Does anyone have experience of how long this takes and where I go to get it please?

I understand that I could also come back via the USA and cross at a land border without a PR travel doc. Does anyone have experience of this please?

Thank you for any help you’re able to give me!
 
Try the Permanent Residency Obligation section of the forum.
 
Thank you for the link. I looked at this but their processing times are stated as “variable”. Does anyone have direct experience of trying to get a PR travel document in the UK and the time it takes? Thank you

"Variable" means exactly that. Every case is different. However, for a fresh PR, with no possibility of not meeting the Residency Obligations, it should be reasonably fast.

Hopefully as you say the process should be reasonably fast.
