Hello everyone,

I landed successfully in Toronto International Airport. The officer wrote my address on the COPR copy that he kept but I realized later that I gave him the wrong postal code only the last 3 digits wrong. However, everything else about my address is correct.

Are they going to mail the PR card to the wrong address ? or are they going to mail the PR card to my address shown on ECAS?


Thank you in advance!

Congrats on your landing.

They are going to send your PR to the address on your COPR. It's best if you check your ECAS daily, and as soon as the new tab for PR card processing is open, call CIC call center and let them know about the new address. Just to make sure you're on the right track call CIC call centre tomorrow and give them your UCI number and see if they can put a note on your file before the processing of your PR card starts.

Mistakes happen, don't worry! It'll be fine.

Best of luck,

I don't think it will, but even if it does delay the process, it wouldn't be more than couple of weeks. Call the call centre.

Best of luck,

Give CIC a call - let them know what's the issue and see if you can update your address for them. Good Luck!
