Dear Members,

I need your expert advice on my unusual circumstances. I am British Citizen and was issued Canadian PR card in June 2012 and ever since I was not able to move to Canada due to some unavoidable circumstances. My PR card is expiring in June 2017 and I am now preparing to immigrate to Canada on permanent basis in Jan 2017. Could you please answer the following questions;

1. As my PR card is about to expire in June 2017 and I am moving to Canada in Jan 2017, am I allowed to used to use my PR card to enter Canada without any problems with CBSA?
2. Is there any problem in getting a job in IT industry if my PR card is about to expire?
3. How can I renew my PR card? 
4. If I get a job in Canada, am I allow to travel overseas for holiday and re-enter Canada with expired PR card?

Many thanks in advance for reading my query and sending accurate answers.

Kind regards,

Hash13
