Updating address for PR card when landing first time

[Sears123]

Hello Guys!
Question : I landed today and the officer asked where i would be staying and i said i booked an airbnb for 3 weeks since this is just my soft landing , so he told me to apply for a PR card when i have a permanent address for mailing . I mentioned he can take my cousin's address or a friends permanent address but he refused . Instead , he mentioned to apply for PRTD when i come next . Should i still go ahead and update my cousin's address online while i am still here for the PR card to be mailed ? I plan on moving to canada 12-18 months later and i have seen online that we should update the address within 6 months of landing , is this a rule ?
If i update the address while i am here , do CIC cross check at the time of receiving the PR card if suppose my cousin receives it on my behalf while i am Out of country ?
He said he will mention a note about my soft landing so i am not sure if it will okay to update the address online.
Please advise !
Thanks

Without your PR Card how would you even arrive in Canada?

What do you mean ? I landed with the help of COPR . I just need to provide an addresss to receive the Pr card

I misread your original post. But from what I read, you can't fly to Canada w/o a PR Card.

He said he will mention a note about my soft landing so i am not sure if it will okay to update the address online.

This is the real question.
