Hello,
We applied for a PRTD early in 2020 with intention to re-patriate by this summer. At that time we had no idea how bad the pandemic would get and that along w the emergence of variants, the impositon of the expensive hotel stay on landing as well as non-access to vaccines in current country (Philippines) forced us to change plans.
My wife was granted a one year multiple entry PRTD in August of 2020 whcih will expire in two months. I've arranged with my company to re-locate/re-patriate to Canada in March of next year so that my wife and I can at least get vaccinated here before we head there. We'd like our kids to be vacinated before travelling as well but that looks unlikely at this point.
My question is should we a) file for a new PRTD now even though the current one is valid explaining that we've had to change plans due to the unknown/unpreductable course the pandemic has taken or b) allow the one that was issued to expire and then apply for a new one?
Any other thoughts/considerations are appreciated.
