Recently, policies for overseas Chinese returning to China have become more and more relaxed, and some cities have even shortened the quarantine time to "7+3" (7 days of centralized quarantine + 3 days of home quarantine).
Under the favorable overall policy environment, many PR applicants have already made plans to return to their country.
However, before returning to Canada, people who are not permanent residents of Canada should ensure that their Maple Leaf Card still has sufficient validity. After all, Maple Leaf Card renewal can only be done within Canada. It will be very troublesome if you miss the renewal time in China for a long time.
However, applicants with permanent residence cards do not need to worry about this. In addition to paper mailing renewal, Canadian permanent residents can now directly submit card renewal applications online!
As we all know, the Canadian Maple Leaf Card (Permanent Resident PR Card) is valid for five years. The holder needs to renew it every five years. If he wants to successfully extend his permanent residence status, he also needs to meet the requirement of living for two years within five years.
The traditional card renewal method requires the applicant to send all the required documents to the Immigration Bureau by mail at one time, and receive the new Maple Leaf Card after the Immigration Bureau completes the review. In this process, applicants need to go through long mailing times and the risk of lost materials.
However, what many applicants don’t know is that the Canadian Immigration Department has opened an online application and card renewal channel for permanent residents!
Applicants only need to prepare electronic materials and submit them directly online! This will help you save mailing time and fees, and you can submit your application at any time within the country.
Currently, the scope of Maple Leaf Card business that can be handled by the PR Portal is as follows:
1. Permanent residents applying for the Maple Leaf Card for the first time;
2. Update the validity period of the Maple Leaf Card;
3. Replace a lost, stolen or damaged Maple Leaf Card;
4. Change the name on the Maple Leaf Card. , gender, address;
5. Did not receive the Maple Leaf Card within 180 days after handling the business.
The materials required to apply for the Maple Leaf Card online are actually the same as those submitted by paper. Applicants only need to fill in the content according to the requirements in the form provided by the system, and submit it together with other supporting materials.
Please note that Maple Leaf Card holders can apply for renewal as early as 9 months before the expiration date.
As the epidemic situation improves, it is not only easy to return to the country, but also applicants have more options to apply for Canadian immigration. The Canadian Immigration Service restarted the invitation to all categories of immigration applicants for the Federal Express Entry on July 6, which means that the two major programs of Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) and Canadian Experience Class (CEC) will be suspended for more than a year. Resume invitation.

These applicants will typically have faster processing times than applying through other programs such as family sponsorship, refugee or humanitarian immigration.
Domestic applicants have been looking forward to the opening of the fast track for a long time. Applicants can rely on their own scoring advantages to directly obtain a visa application invitation and quickly obtain PR. This category does not require an employer offer, nor does it require applicants to land in advance with a work permit. They can wait for PR in China.
