So out of interest what would be your definition of hardship in your circumstances that justifies keeping your PR status ?
Personal view but hardship in the context of H&C to me implies unecessary hardship would be inflicted on the applicant due to the fact their family is in Canada and they are in in home country through circumstances such as looking after a sick close relative. So unecessary hardship would occur if a family was not kept together, does this apply in your case ?
Reading some of your other posts seems the best option is still provide medical evidence of your mothers condition and the fact that no close relatives were available at the time hence the responsibility was yours.
If everything is now in place to support your mother then personal view would be the sooner you apply the better, especially given you started this discussion in 6/2017, but you do need to prepare with full documentation to support your case given any decision would be made on what evidence is in front of immigration at the time .
Above is a personal view only and should be read as such.
Dear bs65, thank you for your response,
The reason why I linger over my application is that in every step I find more demanding details inside the guidelines, like this one:
https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/migration/ircc/english/resources/manuals/enf/enf23-eng.pdf
Actually my supporting documents regarding the
reasons why I had to live abroad (parent's illness) are complete and ready to submit. But when I learned about the importance of
ties and linkages in Canada (as I just have cousins there), I started to wonder if it's ok to present the general hardships in my home country as unusual, undeserved, or disproportionate hardships?
Do I need to submit other justifications like my own depression/anxiety prescriptions that started exactly by the expiration date of my PR, as another proof of my hardship? or just the submission of documents for mother's illness would be enough?
