How long before move to Canada after application approved

[UK resident]

Hi Everyone, Once your application is approved, how long do you have before you can move; is there a specific time frame? Any help would be appreciated, thank you

I believe that it is one year from the date that the medical was done. So when the medical expires is when your PR Visa expires.

Until your visa medicals expire i believe,

Edit; Mine expired 8 days before my visa medical

Or before your passport (with the COPR affixed) expires; whichever is sooner

You can also land in Canada within the time frame described and then return to where you are living now (somewhere in the UK, I assume) to pack, move, and/or conclude any business there before returning to Canada. Your PR card must be mailed to an address in Canada though and you will need it upon return. Also, there is a requirement for number of days spent living in Canada as a PR. Is it 720 days for every 5 years, or something like that?
