Do we need to inform our nearest home country consulate about LPR status ?
Hi ,

Do we need to inform our nearest home country consulate about LPR (Legal Permanent Resident) status (not on H1-B visa now but have GC) ?

Thanks

It depends on your home country, now then wouldn't it?

I registered myself with both the Canadian and Pakistani consulates in Chicago when I moved here in 2003. There was no requirement by either consulate, but I did it on my own. I updated both consulates when I naturalised in 2006.

Hi,

I will check with my country's consulate if they have some requirement.


For Triple Citizen,
Just curious since you are citizen of three countries, can a person be a PR of Canada and USA at the same time ?

Thanks

You don't need to inform your nearest home country or your farthest
home country.

The GC is a document pertains only to the US; some countries may recognize
for travel purposes but the country you hold passport need not be notified.

In my personal opinion, no it is not possible since the term permanent can apply to one country only at a given time.

I figure Triple Citizen became "Triple" by obtaining one citizenship then moving to the next country, not by being an LPR of multiple countries simultaneously.

Yup. I was born in Pakistan and moved to Canada in 1997. Naturalised there in 2000. Moved to the US in 2003 and naturalised here in 2006.
