ultra99 said:well, he's working and got family here, his kids are in school. They've been here for 2.5 years now, with valid status. He says that PR card is only required if he leaves Canada so can enter again. But he's legally here and he's got his landing papers. Maybe I can just submit his landing papers and current lease agreement.
Renewal takes at least 81 days....so no good for me!
scylla said:You can try the landing papers - however they don't prove that he still has PR status in Canada and it's quite possible this won't be enough. He should start the process of renewing his PR card now. What would happen if he had to leave Canada due to an emergency? Not a good idea to be without a valid PR card. Plus the citizenship residency requirement is going up to 4 years (out of 6) as of tomorrow - so he is still a long way off from being able to apply for citizenship.
