Re-Enter Canada without PR

[Kofidei]

Hi
I entered Canada as a permanent resident a month ago. I just had an urgent call to go back to my home country in Africa, to sign a property sale papers. My PR had not yet arrived. I have only two(2) weeks to sign these documents, else I will loose everything. Can I re-enter Canada without the PR card? what must I do to come back to Canada if the PR still hasn't arrive? Can I use my landing documents to travel? Will the embassy issue me a visa to travel back to Canada?
I have photo ID from Canada but my daughter (11years) do not have one. Can I travel using the ID in addition to the landing documents?
what should my daughter use, should there be a need for an ID?

Lastly, will the PR be mailed and how long does it take to process?

I will appreciate your comments and assistance.

1. No you can't use your "landing documents" COPR to travel.
2. To return you will need to get a Travel Document from the Visa office serving the area where you will be in Africa. The information and application will be on the office's web site.
3. You need a passport to travel and you daughter as well.
4. The initial PR card takes 56 days after "landing"

Hi
Thank you. I appreciate it.

One last question will the PR be mailed to my mailing address, so I can send my away whilst I wait for it?

Regards
