As your trusted provider of Top Immigration Services in British Columbia, White Swan Immigration Consultants ensures permanent residents avoid travel disruptions and status complications through precision-guided PR card solutions. With IRCC’s 2025 digital reforms accelerating processing, our Richmond-based specialists deliver error-free applications for renewals, lost cards, and urgent travel documents.
A valid PR card isn’t just travel documentation—it’s your legal anchor in Canada. Clients choose our Top Immigration Services in British Columbia to prevent three critical risks:
Re-Entry Denial
Commercial carriers (airlines/ferries) require valid PR cards for boarding
Without one: Costly Permanent Resident Travel Document (PRTD) applications abroad
Service Access Barriers
Healthcare enrollment delays in BC’s Medical Services Plan (MSP)
Employment verification failures with Service Canada
Citizenship Application Setbacks
IRCC requests valid PR cards during naturalization processing
Gaps in status documentation add 3-6 months to processing
Renew if your card expires within 9 months
Replace if lost/stolen/damaged (even abroad)
