The Permanent Resident card is now a compulsory document for all Permanent Residents including children who apply for a government program like the Canadian social insurance card or the NEXUS card. Moreover, any permanent resident who leaves Canada then wishes to return to Canada will not be granted entry unless they produce their PR card. The PR card is now issued to all new immigrants; however anyone who immigrated to Canada before June 2002 was not issued with a PR card. The card expires every 5 years and you must reapply to renew your card especially if you are planning on leaving Canada then returning.
