Hi, we got PR status on Feb 20, 2015, PR cards expire end of March 2020. We entered Canada several times for a short trips before we moved on permanent basis in March 2018.

Now not planning to leave the country, but have a big concern on when and if we comply for renewal of cards.

If counting 5 years from landing date i will have 729 days inside of Canada on Feb 2020.

Should I wait until closer to PR expiry date and apply that time (if count 5 years from any time in March I will have even more than 730 days..)

Thank you in advance!

1. Wait until you have at least 730 days in Canada in the previous 5 years from your date of Landing.
