Moved to Canada on a work permit but recently got my PR approved. It’s been a 4 month wait to get the actual PR card and I have a family trip coming up soon. Can I still travel and get back into the country with no issues given that I still have a work visa (W1) on my passport? Not sure if my change of status nulls my current visa

I'm in the same boat, 3 months. From what I understand is that our work permit and visa are no longer valid.

You can apply for a permanent resident travel document (PRTD) with the Canadian embassy of your destination county to return back.

Thank you. Never heard of the PRTD. Will look into it
