我們知道,境內的申請人收到貼好籤證的護照,可以隨時去邊境登陸,也可以預約境內登陸,詳細流程可以看這篇文章:《論壇常見問題節選(四):如何登陸》。
境內登陸的地點在移民局的加拿大境內辦公室,具體的辦公室地點可以參考官網。只有大中城市才有加拿大境內辦公室,而只有邊境才能flagpole登陸。如果申請人身處偏遠地區,登陸將十分不便。
但最近預約境內登陸的申請人不再要求申請人親自面試,直接電話問幾個登陸的問題(登陸常見問題,比如有沒有犯罪,有沒有被拒絕入境過),然後讓申請人把登陸紙(Confirmation of Permanent Resident,CoPR)郵寄到境內指定辦公室,收到確認後申請人獲得永久居民狀態完成登陸。境內辦公室會把簽好字的登陸紙回郵給申請人。
電話登陸的優點很明顯,不用親自去邊境或者境內辦公室,足不出戶就可完成登陸,方便了邊遠地區的申請人。缺點是不像邊境能“隨時、立刻”登陸,需要預約時間,還要郵寄登陸紙。本來貼簽郵寄渥太華就等了一個月,現在又要寄到境內移民局辦公室不知道要等多久,萬一寄丟了可是個大麻煩。
最後我們看看電話登陸後移民局給申請人發放的信件,還貼心地提醒了關於居住義務、楓葉卡、醫保卡、社保號等事項。

Information for new PRs
Residency obligation
In order to maintain your PR status, you must be physically present in Canada for 730 days in every five-year period. You can also include days spent outside Canada for an extended period of time for one of the following reasons:
• You are accompanying your Canadian-citizen spouse or common-law partner;
• You are a child accompanying a Canadian-citizen parent;
• You are employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business, the public service of Canada or the public service of a Canadian province or territory.
• You are accompanying your Permanent Resident spouse or common-law partner who is also outside Canada and who is employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business, the public service of Canada or the public service of a Canadian province or territory.
• You are a child accompanying a Permanent Resident parent who is outside Canada and employed on a full-time basis by a Canadian business, the public service of Canada or the public service of a Canadian province or territory.Travel Information
The PR card is required when you seek to re-enter the country via commercial transportation (buses, boats, trains, planes). If you are not in possession of a valid card, you must apply for and obtain a PR travel document at the nearest Canadian visa office before returning to Canada.
Healthcare
To apply for a health insurance card, you will need to apply to the ministry of health in the province or territory where you live. Apply for your health insurance card as soon as possible after becoming a PR.
Social Insurance Number
A Social Insurance Number (SIN) is a nine-digit identification number given to you for use with income tax, Employment Insurance, Old Age Security pension, and other government programs. You need a SIN to work in Canada. To obtain a permanent SIN, rather than the temporary number you were previously issued, visit your nearest Service Canada Centre. For additional information, please contact Service Canada at 1-800-206-7218 for English or 1-800-808-6352 for French.
On behalf of IRCC, we would like to thank you for your interest in becoming a Permanent Resident in Canada. If you require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the Client Support Centre at 1-888-242-2100 or visit our website at www.cic.gc.ca.
