About

PR Card and Renewal

A Permanent Resident card is a plastic card with the individual's biographic information including photo and expiration date issued by Citizenship and Immigration Canada. It authorizes the PR card holder the right to live and work anywhere in Canada. If a PR travels outside Canada, the permanent resident card is the proof that you are a permanent resident of Canada. If a PR holder leaves Canada then you will need a valid PR Card to re-enter the country. If you are outside Canada and your PR Card is in expired status you need to apply for Permanent Resident Travel Document (PRTD) to return to Canada. As long as you remain in Canada and the permanent resident card expires, it does not mean you lost permanent resident status. Even if you fail to meet the permanent resident residency obligation, your PR status remains in effect until an official decision is made on your status.

If a PR card is within 9 months of expiration, or it has already expired, a permanent resident can submit an application for a new PR card. In order to renew a permanent resident card, an applicant must submit a complete application in hard copy to one of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s (IRCC) Case Processing Centers for PR cards. Upon submission, provided that an application is complete and that the permanent resident meets all requirements, a new PR card will be issued. Applications for renewed PR Cards generally take 69 days. You can find up-to-date application processing times on the IRCC website. However, many people have found that it can take several months to process PR card applications.

A permanent resident card is usually issued for five years and it is valid until the expiry date listed on the card. Upon renewal of this card, this will be sent to addresses within Canada only. Please note that permanent resident status does not expire when a person’s PR card expires. Permanent Resident status is for life time; however, a person can only lose their PR status in the following situations and it must go through the official process.

  • You voluntarily renounce your permanent resident status;
  • A removal order is made against you and comes into effect, or;
  • You become a Canadian citizen.
  • You have to prove that you have ties such as a job, home, financial assets or family that prove you will be returning to your home country
