I was in Canada on PR in the year 2000 along with my wife and son who were dependent on me. Due to personal reasons I had to go back to India. My son was a year old then - I'm not a resident of Canada anymore.
However, my son has turned 18 and is wanting to get his residency status in Canada as he'd like to pursue his studies there. While we were in Canada I did not get the landing done and left to India suddenly.
Is there anyway my son who has turned 18 apply for permanent residency on the basis that it wasn't his fault that his parents didn't do the landing and get his PR.
Kindly advice on this situation

Your post is unclear. You first say that you were in Canada as a PR and then you say that you didn't actually complete your landing to become a PR. Which is it?
If you and your family became PRs, your son has a chance to return to Canada as a PR.
If you and your family never actually landed as PRs, your son has no claim to status.
Only I was a PR but went back to India for good and never returned. I did get a couple of invitations to return in order to retain my status as a resident but since I didn't come back, I no more hold the status.
While I was in Canada, I received the PR document for my son who was a year old. I just had to do the landing for him in order to get the status but we left the country before doing the landing.
My son is now 18 and wants to regain his status as a resident. His landing certificate is the only document I have.
How do you think I could go about in this given situation ?
