Hi, I have received my PR card. Does anyone know if I need to submit my new address to immigation when I move to a new place?
 
I dont think you are required to submit your new address after getting your PR card . It is only required if your PR in process for correspondences . Regards.
 
Your PR card,Health card & Driving licence are your identity documents and must bear accurate
address and other information contained there in, get your address changed.If you intend to travel, the Permanent Resident Card is the official proof of your status as a permanent resident in Canada.This wallet-sized plastic card is required for all permanent residents of Canada seeking to re-enter Canada on a commercial carrier (airplane, boat, train or bus). I am sure your accurate address will help authorities to contact your family in case of emergencies.
 
Is it compulsory to change/update address on PR card? There is no address on PR card so I wonder whats the need of it.

I have just updated my Driver's License and Health Card online for change of address as I moved a place of my own (rented) recently. Uptill now I was staying with my relatives and its their address that is/was there on all my documents. Just wondering if PR needs to be updated too.

PR card has no address on it... IRCC only needs your address if you have an application in process...
If you don’t have an application in process then it’s not necessary

Does this mean that whenever I renew my PR card, its then that I will need to update my latest address of that time?
