Change of Address During Application Process

Hello,

I’m a Canadian citizen currently living in Korea. My family and I will be moving to Toronto late this July. Once we arrive, we’ll apply for my wife’s permanent residency.

When we first arrive, we will stay with my parents until we can find a place to rent. However, we wanted to apply for her permanent residency as soon as we arrived since it takes a long time to process. Even if we apply after we find out place to rent, we eventually want to buy a place of our own. If that opportunity comes before the application process has been completed, we would have to provide a new address in this case as well.

Is it possible to apply using one address and then provide a new address while the application is being processed? If so, how can we provide this new address?

Thank you!
