Immigrating Back To Canada

[Shaz]

Hi guys,

Need some advice on my current situation.

I moved to Canada in 2010 after getting married to a Canadian girl. I received my PR card in 2012.

We have two kids together (Aged 6) but we ended up separating in 2017, and I moved back to the UK.

My PR card expired in 2017, and I did not renew it.

So now I've decided that I want to move back to Canada to be closer to my children but not sure how to go about it.

Can I just renew my PR card, or will I have to go through the immigration process again?

I did go to college in Canada and received a Diploma.

Any advice would help

Thank you

You need to be in Canada to renew your PR Card. You must have 730days inside Canada out of the last 5years before you can apply for the Renewal. You are still a PR unless they have revoked your status which is unlikely.
