It is possible for a permanent resident to lose their permanent resident status, and can even be removed from Canada in certain circumstances.

A. Residency Requirement

A permanent resident must meet the residency requirements as outlined in the IRPA. Generally, a permanent resident must be physically present in Canada for 730 days out of every five years. The residency requirements can be met in a few different ways. See s 28 of the IRPA for full details.

1. Permanent Resident Cards (“PR Cards”)

All permanent residents who intend to travel outside of Canada require a PR card. The PR card is a document that indicates the holder’s permanent residence status. A PR card should be renewed before its expiry date. PR cards must be issued within Canada.

The following link may act as a useful reference: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?q=057&t=10

NOTE: A permanent resident without a PR card is still a permanent resident. If a permanent resident is outside Canada without a PR card, that person can apply for travel documents to re-enter Canada.

B. Inadmissibility

A foreign national or permanent resident can be determined “inadmissible” to Canada for several reasons, including, but not limited to, committing a serious crime or being found to have misrepresented information in their immigration application. Inadmissibility means that a foreign national or permanent resident has contravened the IRPA in some way, and will be issued a removal order.

There are three types of removal orders, which are discussed below.

If a permanent resident is determined inadmissible, he or she may lose their permanent resident status. The inadmissibility provisions relating to foreign nationals and permanent residents overlap for the most part, but there are some differences. For example, permanent residents will be inadmissible for serious criminality if they commit an indictable offence, while foreign nationals will be inadmissible for committing a less serious summary offence. Refer to the IRPA directly for specific grounds of inadmissibility (ss 34 – 43).
