Individuals eligible to apply for Permanent Resident Card renewal must be permanent residents within Canada who would like to apply for:

The applicant

1. I am a new permanent resident of Canada. Do I need to apply for a permanent resident card?

No, IRCC will mail your permanent resident (PR) card to you when you arrive in Canada. If you did not provide your Canadian mailing address when you became a permanent resident, you can update it later but it is always advisable to provide a trusted address at the point of entry.
2. What if I fail to update my address after arrival in Canada?

You must provide your address within 180 days of the day you become a permanent resident. If you do not send it within 180 days, IRCC will cancel the PR card and you will have to apply for another one and pay the processing fees.
3. I need to leave Canada and I do not have a permanent resident card. Can I later return to Canada without a PR card?

You need a valid permanent resident (PR) card to return to Canada by plane, train, bus or boat. If you know your card will expire when you’re travelling, you must renew it before you leave. You can only renew your card in Canada. IRCC does not send PR cards to non-Canadian addresses and doesn't allow third parties to get them for you. If you’re outside Canada and don’t have a valid PR card, we can apply for a permanent resident travel document (PRTD) for you to return to Canada. You can only apply for a PRTD from outside Canada. If you try to return to Canada without a PR card or PRTD, you may not be able to take your flight, train, bus or boat to Canada.
