Hello

My PR card is expired and already applied for the renewal. However, it is taking long . As we have to go for marriage in family, can I apply for an urgent request?


Can I apply PRTD while in Canada ? and if yes what is process ?

Thanks for your advice

1. No, they won't process on an urgent basis unless:

"
To qualify for urgent permanent resident (PR) card processing, you must be travelling within the next three months due to:
  • a job opportunity
  • your own serious illness
  • the death of a family member
  • work related to your current job
  • the serious illness of a family member"
2. No, you can only apply for PRTD at an overseas office. You can complete the forms, but they must be submitted overseas.
