On August 8, 2022, the Government of Canada reorganized the web pages for the permanent residency program, the permanent resident card, and related topics to improve information organization and accessibility. Within the new layout for information migrated from manuals into program delivery instructions format, further updates on content will be available for the permanent resident program delivery instructions. The permanent resident card (PR card) is the official confirmation of residency in Canada. To travel to Canada as a permanent resident, all applicants need a valid PR card or permanent resident travel document (PRTD).
