Hey, friends, if you hold a maple leaf card, the card has expired and intends to return to the beautiful maple leaves from the beautiful maple leaves abroad in Canada, please read this notes carefully! This is some super practical techniques, waiting for you to discover ~ ✨

1⃣ ** Don't panic, your identity is still **

First of all, everyone can rest assured! Even if your maple leaf card has passed the validity period, this does not mean that you are no longer a permanent resident in Canada. As long as you can meet the conditions of at least 730 days (that is, two years) in the past five years, your identity is still stable.

2⃣ ** Key steps: Apply for PRTD **

When you are overseas, if you find that the maple leaf card in your hand is no longer valid, remember to quickly handle a thing called "Permanent resident travel file" (PRTD). Just like your temporary pass, you can enter the Canadian door steadily.

3⃣ ** Record entry and exit date are important **

In order to better protect its legitimate rights and interests, it is recommended to develop friends who are commonly used to. Every time you enter Canada, you must write a specific date and time so that you can use the maple leaf card as a strong evidence.

4⃣ ** Keep vigilant! Don’t get wrong to give up the statement **

In some cases, the applicant applies for a tourist visa to enter Canada may sign a document. The document abandons the PR state without knowing it, causing PR identity to lose. Therefore, if your maple leaf card expires, please do not try to enter the country with a tourist visa, but apply for PRTD.

5⃣ ** Prepare all materials ** ✅

Before submitting the PRTD application, do not forget to prepare all necessary files, such as primitive passports, personal photos and ID certificates. Only when all the information is accurate and complete can it ensure that the entire process is smooth.

6⃣ ** If you encounter special circumstances, what should I do? **

If you encounter very urgent things, you need to return to the Fa immediately. For example, if work needs, physical health, or sudden situations of family members, you can try to explain to relevant departments to apply for emergencies to deal with your case.

7⃣ ** Avoid common misunderstandings **

Remember, even if the maple leaf card on hand has failed, as long as you meet the requirements of your residence, you are still a legal permanent resident. Therefore, if you plan to return to Canada, you should apply for PRTD instead of other types of visas!

I hope these techniques can help friends who are worried about this, and welcome to share with people around you! Let's come together, let us go home safely and go home steadily!
