Subject: PR card validity
  Hello All,
My Parents migrated to Canada on 28th July, 2002 on Permanent Residency. They stayed here for almost 13 months and left canada on 13th of August 2003. Now they would like to join us for good. Their PR card is valid until October 2007,

I couldn´t able to find enough information on CIC website regarding the returning resident.Spoke to CIC agent. They recommended to look at the website and provided the below link.
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/newcomer/res-oblig.html

They are outside of country for 3 yrs and 5 months in the last 4.5 years. Based on CIC website it says a PR should be in canada for atleast 2 yrs in the last 5 yrs. They still have 6 - 8 months of valid time left on the PR. Are they allowed at Port OF entry or need any special permissions.

I greatly appreciate your advise in this matter.

Thanks
Qmer

Residency obligation (in reply to: PR card validity)
You must accumulate two years of physical presence in Canada in every five-year period.

They have violated residency obligation.

They can fly to Canada no questions asked. However at Canadian Airport CIC officer will most likely. Send their file to IRB for appeal. They will be in Canada fighting to remain here. Parents have to provide some humane and compassionate resons for voilating the rule. Its not difficult to win the appeal.
