Question about PR Travel Document (PRTD) Process

[ahmadreza777]

Hello,

I am currently outside Canada and my PR card is ready for pick-up, but I am unable to pick it up in person. Since I am Iranian, the closest consulate is in Turkey, which is a bit of an issue as I would need to travel there.

I am applying for a PR Travel Document (PRTD), and I would like to know if I apply for the PRTD online, will the entire process be completed online, including the approval and receiving the document? Or do I still need to send my passport to the consulate to have the PRTD issued and then pick it up in person?

Thank you for your help!

Prtds are inserted in passport via a visa office. (Indeed form is basically a visa)

Are you compliant with your RO? Do you have a US visa?

They can't travel even to Turkey which is nearer than US.

They didn’t say they couldn’t travel to Turkey. Assume they are implying that it is a huge hassle/expense and would prefer not to have to travel to Turkey.
