PR card renewal/passprt copies/exit/entry record

- Absolutely, Jorguni. Couldn't agree more. 

I am not that familiar with acronyms, abbreviations, or codes used in the FOSS system, so I have no idea what most of this means.

The 18 October 2011 entry, though, looks straight forward enough: your file has been referred to the local office for review and RQ. This is in line with what we discussed in the third week of October or so, when eCas showed that your application was transferred to the local CIC office (page 7 of this thread).

The good news is that by now you should be accruing additional days toward the RO (into November, as I recall, you were still losing, as they became more than five years previous, some of the days you were counting from 2006), and at this stage you are accruing recent days (which I think weigh more in terms of H&C factors than days four plus years ago), and as I recall, while you cut it very close, by now you should be on the positive side of the cutoff.

In terms of what evidence you may want to gather and maintain: anything that shows either your residence here (passive evidence does not directly show presence but it lays a foundation for inferences about being here unless there is evidence indicating you were not) or your activities here . . . and of course, the more objective that evidence the better. Evidence of travel within Canada may help. Any evidence that tends to show that you, you personally were doing something in Canada on such and such a date can help to build the outline, the sketch, that supports inferences that you were in Canada between those dates. Employment records are, of course, excellent. Doctor or dentist visits, good stuff. Affidavits from people who know you and who can attest to your presence in Canada should help.

They are taking their time getting around to fully processing this.

Will they not calculate till 24th june ??? Is there any possibility that I can with draw my application now and resend again a little later or it is better to wait

CIC will go back 5 years from the 24/June/11 as that is the date you applied.

Hi, I just want to update my brother PR and TD status. As you maybe remember, my brother is working for a fishing company on the Pacific Ocean and his PR Card is expired. He has been in Canada for almost 700 days and he was required for an interview. Unfortunately, He  was in the middle od his shift (2-3 months) and it was suspended. My brother returned to our country and He asked for a TD on the Canadian Consulate and with the form filled he attached all kind of documents to confirm, he and his family are living here (bank accounts, rental contract, bills, etc.). After wait 10 days he received a letter informing him was denied for a TD and no Humand and Compasionate grounds would be applied in his case. He never was asked for an interview to try to convince the officer why he is not accomplish with the 730 days rule. 

I do not think that the denial of a TD has the same consequence as a removal order. As aeem23's brother entered Canada, I think there is no reason to appeal the refusal of a TD. What for? What could be achieved? The TD would only allow for a single return. I do not see any benefit, except it would point CIC to the situation not being in compliance and might provoke RQ or removal order.
I edited my post, as it appears now that the denial of a TD most likely implies the loss of PR status, so I now regard it necessary to appeal this decision!!!

If I was in this situation, I would stay in Canada until I am again in clearly compliance with RO (730+ days presence) and then (add a month or so) apply for a PR card renewal. Nevertheless I would prepare for receiving RQ.

The bigger other problem is what aeem23's brother intends to do in the future. As soon as he leaves again for the overseas job he will be most likely again NOT in compliance with RO. This is the bigger problem. If he cannot maintain 730+ days in previous 5 years, he will constantly in danger to be denied travel back to Canada. No matter if he will be accepted even on H&C grounds for a new PR card, this only solves the current problem, but if he leaves soon again, he will get exactly the same problems trying to return.

A H&C based renewed PR card will not help him, when he leaves soon and is soon again below the threshold. It is intended for people that want to remain in Canada and from that on stay in compliance with RO.

But remember that even a 5 year valid PR card does not allow to leave for the next 3 years. On every single future day you have to meet the criteria of 730 days of physical presence within the 5 years before that particular day.
