time to enter canada after receiving permanent residency?

[TJL]

Can anyone tell me how long one has to enter canada after receiving their permanent residency?  I thought it was 90 days but can't find that information.
Thanks in advance for your response.

You don't actually receive permanent residency until you land at a Canadian port of entry and are admitted.  Before that, you have a PR visa - which is not the same as permanent residency.

The length of time you have to land has nothing to do with when you received your PR visa.  You have 1 year from the date of your medicals.
