Dear Friends,
need your help to check the validity of my PR Card.
I landed in Canada with my immigration documents in June 2011. Applied for my PR Card and came back. Due to some discrepency in the picture, my PR Card was ultimately issued in August 2012, when again I went to Canada.
Now my PR Card is valid till July 2017 and I am outside Canada.
Please let me know, upto what time I can remain outside Canada?? Till June 2016, when I am completing my 5 years from the date, I entered in Canada OR till August 2017, when my PR Card is going to expire.
Kindly help

OR
