Hello,

My father is travelling from Japan on May 26th. I applied for eTA on his behalf recently and got a message that he has a permanent residency status and he would have to revoke it to get the eTA approved. He applied for his PR card 17 years ago but never received it and never renewed it, but he has a Record of Landing.
My questions are as follows;

1) The letter we received says that we have to submit the application to revoke PR status by online. I can complete the application but do I also have to submit the photos online?

2) How long does it take from the time I submit the application to eTA finally being approved? His plane leaves on May 26th from Japan to Toronto.

Thank you for your help!
