Canada Intents to invite 90,000 Temporary Residents to become Permanent residents through six new streams. Its infamously called as “TR to PR Pathway” as well.

Effective May 6, 2021, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will begin accepting applications under the following 3 streams:

·       20,000 applications for temporary workers in health care

·       30,000 applications for temporary workers in other selected essential occupations

·       40,000 applications for international students who graduated from a Canadian institution

 

The streams will remain open until November 5, 2021, or until they have reached their limit. Up to 90,000 new permanent residents will be admitted under these 3 streams.    

 

To promote Canada’s official languages, 3 additional streams with no intake caps have also been launched for French-speaking or bilingual candidates. Communities across Canada benefit from French-speaking and bilingual newcomers, and this pathway will contribute to the vitality of these Francophone minority communities.

·       live, work or study anywhere in Canada,

·       apply for Canadian citizenship,

·       protection under Canadian law and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Time Lived in Canada

To keep your permanent resident status, you must have been in Canada for at least 730 days during the last five years. These 730 days don’t need to be continuous. Some of your time abroad may count towards the 730 days. See what time abroad counts towards your permanent resident status.

To help you track your time in Canada, use a travel journal. Other ways to know how long you’ve been in Canada:

·       Ask a Canadian border officer when you enter Canada.

·       Apply for or renew your PR card. We will tell you if you’re eligible.

 

Losing your permanent resident status

You don’t lose your permanent resident status when your PR card expires. You can only lose your status if you go through an official process.

You can lose your permanent resident status if:

·       an adjudicator determines you are no longer a permanent resident after an inquiry or PRTD appeal;

·       you voluntarily renounce your permanent resident status;

·       a removal order is made against you and comes into force; or

·       you become a Canadian citizen.

Even if you don't meet the residency obligation, you are still a PR until an official decision is made on your status.

Learn how to avoid travel delays if you are not sure of your status.

Voluntarily giving up (renouncing) permanent resident status

Losing your permanent resident status does not happen automatically.

There may come a time when you no longer want to be a permanent resident of Canada.  If so, you can apply to voluntarily give up (renounce) your permanent resident status.

For example, if you:

·       know you have not met your residency obligations by being outside of Canada for a long period of time, and

·       would like to visit Canada, and

·       do not want to wait for a visa officer to do a formal assessment of your permanent resident status

OR

·       would like to avoid processing delays at the Port of Entry

You may not be able to enter Canada until your permanent resident status is resolved either by receiving a permanent resident travel document or by voluntarily giving up your permanent resident status.
