Key figures at a glance
Source sequence preservedApplication timeline Sequence and requirements | |
|---|---|
| Step | What happens |
| 1. Eligibility check | Confirm the residency obligation (730 days in the last 5 years) is met |
| 2. Application submission | Photo, application form, and supporting documents filed |
| 3. Processing | IRCC reviews and issues a new card if approved |
Applying several months before expiry is generally recommended, since processing takes time and travel plans can be disrupted by an expired card.
This can complicate renewal and may require additional explanation or evidence of qualifying exceptions (such as accompanying a Canadian spouse abroad) — it should be addressed proactively rather than ignored.
