Supporting You at Every Stage of Your Canadian Immigration Journey

At Pacific Ways Immigration Consultancy, we provide complete support for permanent residents and new Canadians who need assistance with renewals, travel documents, citizenship applications, and passport preparation.

Our goal is to make each step simple, clear, and stress free so you can focus on building your life in Canada.

A .Permanent Resident Travel Document (PRTD)

When You Are Outside Canada Without a Valid PR Card

  • A PRTD is required when a permanent resident is outside Canada and does not have a valid PR card to return. This document allows you to re-enter Canada by commercial transportation.

You may need a PRTD if:

  • Your PR card expired while you were abroad
  • You left Canada before receiving your first PR card
  • Your PR card was lost, damaged, or stolen
  • You became a permanent resident through inland sponsorship and have not yet received a PR card

PWIC helps by:

  • Reviewing your residency obligation compliance
  • Preparing a strong explanation for time spent outside Canada
  • Collecting evidence related to work, family ties, and community connection
  • Drafting detailed letters of explanation
  • Submitting the application to the correct visa office
  • Preparing you for possible interviews or requests for more documents

A well presented PRTD application is critical because refusals can trigger residency investigations. PWIC ensures your case is accurate, consistent, and fully supported.

B. PR Card Renewal

Keeping Your Status Valid and Your Travel Plans on Track

  • A valid PR card is required to return to Canada by commercial transportation. Renewals require proof that you have met the residency obligation.

PWIC supports PR card renewals for:

  • Cards that are expired or expiring soon
  • Urgent travel needs
  • Lost, stolen, or damaged PR cards
  • Complex cases involving long stays outside Canada
  • Situations where residency evidence is limited or complicated

Our renewal services include:

  • Residency obligation review using the 730 day rule
  • Preparing proof of employment abroad, family obligations, or accompanying spouse status
  • Drafting explanation letters
  • Ensuring travel history matches IRCC and CBSA records
  • Advising on urgent processing if travel is time sensitive

With PWIC, your renewal application is complete, compliant, and prepared to avoid delays or procedural fairness letters.

C. Canadian Citizenship Applications

Take the Final Step in Your Canadian Journey

  • Becoming a Canadian citizen brings security, stability, and a sense of belonging. PWIC helps you prepare a complete and accurate citizenship application.

Eligibility includes:

  • Physical presence of 1,095 days in Canada in the past 5 years
  • Filing income taxes if required
  • Meeting age based language requirements
  • Passing the citizenship knowledge test

PWIC helps with:

  • Physical presence calculations
  • Reviewing complex travel histories
  • Preparing adult and minor applications
  • Addressing past immigration issues
  • Citizenship test preparation
  • Requests for urgent processing or name changes

Citizenship applications are often delayed by incorrect forms or gaps in travel history. PWIC ensures accuracy and strong supporting documentation.

D. Passport Applications for New Canadians

Helping You Complete the Final Administrative Step After Citizenship

  • Once you become a Canadian citizen, you may apply for a Canadian passport. Although this step is outside IRCC, many clients need guidance in preparing a complete application.
  • PWIC supports:
  • Adult passport applications
  • Child passport applications
  • Passport renewals

We help ensure your passport paperwork is complete so you can receive your travel document quickly.
