PR Card Expired But Flying Abroad Emergency Any Solutions

[Inderpreet]

Hi, my PR card has already been expired. I just noticed today morning.

I have to fly India in an emergency.

What should I do now ?

Hello Inderpreet

You should have applied for your PR card earlier on time. Now you can request IRCC to process your PR card application to process urgently only if you have actually a valid reason of emergency such as:

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

But still it can not be a guarantee that you will get it processed early. So another option is you can apply for a PRTD (permanent resident travel document) from outside Canada when your PR card is expired and return to Canada with this PRTD.
