What is PR Card Renewal?
PR card renewal is the process of renewing your permanent resident card before it expires. The PR card serves as proof of your permanent resident status in Canada and is required for travel outside Canada and re-entry.
It's important to apply for renewal before your current card expires to avoid complications with travel and proving your status. The renewal process involves verifying that you continue to meet the residency obligation and maintaining your permanent resident status.
Residency Obligation Requirements
To be eligible for PR card renewal, you must have been physically present in Canada for at least 730 days (2 years) within the five years immediately before your application. Time spent outside Canada may count toward this obligation in certain circumstances, such as accompanying a Canadian citizen spouse or working for a Canadian business abroad.
