Eligibility
- You are a Permanent Resident of Canada and hold a valid PR card
- The PR card expires in less than nine months
- You have lived in Canada for at least 730 days in the last five years
Steps to apply
Once you are eligible to apply, get the right application package, fill in all forms, add the relevant documents, and submit the package after paying the application fee. Some of the documents you may need to submit along with the forms are:
A photocopy of your PR card
A photocopy of your passport or travel document
A photocopy of the fee payment receipt
Two photos that meet the specification of IRCC
You must send these documents and forms to the Case Processing Centre in Canada.
The IRCC may not accept your application if the details are incomplete, if you have given wrong information, or if you have not paid the right application fees.
