Does CIC allow forwarding mail to a Canadian address

[delsie23]

Mailing address and home address are two different concepts. CIC uses home address as a reference to arrange your oath or test.

In terms of reliability, it has always been good for me. I have changed my mailing addresses two times and keeping my home address the same. I don't have any issues with that. If CIC sent to the wrong address, it is certainly not your responsbility.

Hi,, I’ve got a question. Cause when my husband and I landed last week in Quebec the officer asked the address. We gave our residential address but forgot to give our PO box.. i don’t know how we can receive our PR cards. Are they going to delivery it in my residential address that I gave or I need po pick it up somewhre else

They will send it to your residential address. However , pay special attention. When we first landed, we did not receive the cards for almost 2 months. So I called and at that time I found out that the officer did not put our address in the system.

Only when I called, they sent our PR cards in the mail. That was over 5 years ago.

Not online. You could try contacting IRCC via webform or phone, but they may want to know why.

You might be better off having a friend check your mailbox especially if going for a short period of time. If longer period then remember you would need to return for interview (in 99% of cases) and oath at a minimum while maintaining your PR status (730 days per five years).
