its advisable to get the PRCs and then leave the country but yes you do have an option of leaving canada before that & meanwhile your relatives later will receive and send your cards to you. just pray that you dont have any issue in PRC processing like picture problem etc. otherwise you will have to travel back again for the PRC.

You cannot re-enter without PR card as the immigrant visa is single entry. Otherwise, there is no complication.

NO. Please read the documents which come from embassy with your landing papers and visa. If anything is required at the time of landing, that would have been mentioned in the letter.

hi RockinCanada

thanks for th clarification , however i understand that i can not comeback unless i have the PRC, but my question is can anyone of my relatives in montreal send it to me by mail. as i heared that that are new rules in quebec to check the presence of the immigrante before giving him and PRC card. is this right?

thanks again.

Not sure about Quebec and I do not see rules to be different for sending PR card. When you land, you automatically apply for the PR card and it is sent to the address you provide at that time. Yes, your relative can send it via mail to you, but there have been instances that the PR card has not reached in time and if it is lost or did not reach for some reason, people had difficulty applying or getting hold of CIC people. It takes 45 days to 2 months for PR card to reach, I suggest wait until you get that and then leave the country unless absolutely necessary.

If you have to leave, and you do not have a PR card..you can obtain a temporary travel document from your local CIC office.

Follow this link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5445ETOC.asp

Hope this helps.
