Permanent Resident (PR) Card

You are eligible to apply for a permanent resident card as a permanent resident of Canada. A permanent resident card (PR Card) is used as a certificate of identity while traveling. A permanent resident card is used as proof of your permanent residency status when returning to Canada. A PR card is valid for a maximum period of 5 years.

If your PR card has expired, then you must apply for a new one before leaving Canada on your trip. If your PR card is about to expire, you will need to apply to the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to renew your PR card.

Requirements for PR Card:


You need to meet the following requirements to apply for a PR card:
• You will need to provide information about your travel history, updated address, and employment history for the last 5 years. This information is used to assess if you have met the Permanent Residency Obligations
• As a permanent resident, you are required to spend 730 days in the last 5 years in Canada. This is known as the residency obligation. If you do not meet these requirements, your permanent resident card will be refused.
If you do not meet the residency obligation, your permanent residency will also be revoked.
