The [Permanent Resident] Travel Document can only be used once.

It is important that you check the expiry date of your PR card before you travel. If you need to renew it, you should apply before you travel. Find more information about renewing a PR card.

• prove who you are;
  
• confirm your permanent resident status; and
  
• meet the residency obligation of a permanent resident.
  

Hello, I lost my PR card just this year and I was thinking for a replacement card but then I realized that it will also expire in a few months (April 2022). Could I still be able to renew my PR card even though I lost it?

To be eligible for a PR card, you need to:

• 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

No matter what type of heating equipment you have, your landlord must keep it working properly so it can keep your place warm enough. Usually this means at least 20°C from September to June.

The exact temperature and dates are different for different places in Ontario. For example, in some areas the temperature must be 21°C, and in some places in Northern Ontario heat must be provided all year.

a determination by an officer that humanitarian and compassionate considerations relating to a permanent resident, taking into account the best interests of a child directly affected by the determination, justify the retention of permanent resident status overcomes any breach of the residency obligation prior to the determination.

Hi,

I was invited to apply for sponsoring my parents this year 2021. my wife (co-signer) and I didn't meet the income criteria for only one year, that's for 2018 income tax.


should we proceed to apply? or our application will not be approved?

Thank you

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your questions with us.

In order to be an eligible sponsor for your own parents, you must provide proof that you meet the income requirements for each of the 3 tax years before the date you apply (meaning that you need to have met the income requirements for 2020, 2019 and 2018). However, if you live in Quebec, the income requirements are different. The purpose of the income requirements is to demonstrate that you can financially support yourself and your family.

For the 2021 Parents and Grandparents program, sponsors will be assessed on their income for tax years 2020, 2019 and 2018. Thus, your income from 2008 is irrelevant in the assessment.
In case you meant to write “2018” instead of “2008”, the situation would be different. 2018 income would be included in assessing the income requirements. If the 2018 combined income of you and your co-signor does not meet the income requirement, then your application for sponsorship will not likely be approved.

You may also consult this page to make sure that you are calculating your required income correctly.
If your parents have exceptionally strong reasons to live in Canada, as set out in Section 25 (1) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations, your parents may request humanitarian and compassionate (H&C) consideration to overcome the requirement to have an eligible sponsor.

Please let us know if you have further questions.

Sincerely,

Your Settlement.Org team
