Hi Friends,
This is towards providing my Address History on the Citizenship Application:
The Address where we received our PR Card , SIN and provided to the CBSA(when we landed) was my friend's address. While we stayed at an Airbnb for those months.
When I look here on the govt website: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5445-applying-permanent-resident-card-card-first-application-replacement-renewal-change-gender-identifier.html#5445E5
----------------------
This what the website says:
Question 12:
Write the address where you live in Canada with postal code.
Note: All correspondence will go to this address unless you provide your e-mail address in question 14.
Question 13 :
Write your mailing address, with postal code, if different from your address in question A-12.
Note: If you provide your mailing address, all correspondence will be sent there. However, PR Cards will not be mailed to third party addresses. If you provide a third party address, your PR Card will be sent to your residential address (the address where you live). PR Cards will only be mailed to post office (PO) boxes if this is your residential mailing address. If you do not provide your residential address, processing will be delayed until you provide it.
-----------------------
Now the website clearly says that you are not allowed to provide a third party's address to receive the PR card. But I did.
How do I resolve this contradiction?
