Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

You can find information regarding eligibility for renewing a PR card in the Applying for a Permanent Resident Card (PR card) - Initial application, replacement, renewal or to change sex designation (IMM 5445) application in the Assessing your eligibility section.

Here is an excerpt,


Assessing your eligibility

To be eligible for a PR card, you must:

  • be a permanent resident of Canada
  • be physically present in Canada
  • meet the residency requirement (see Appendix A – Residency obligation)
  • not be under an effective removal order
  • not be a Canadian citizen and
  • not be convicted of an offense related to the misuse of a PR card

If you decide to leave Canada without a PR card, you may want to look at some information related to returning to Canada.

You can find some information on the IRCC website in the I need to leave Canada and I do not have a permanent resident card. Can I later return to Canada without a PR card? section.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
