PGWP holders who travel and re-enter Canada sometimes aren't given a physical passport stamp, and worry this will cause problems later when proving continuous residence for a PR application.
What group members advised:- Border officers commonly explain that a stamp isn't needed once you already hold a valid permit — since your entry is already registered electronically in IRCC's system through the airport kiosk process, a separate ink stamp is often considered redundant.
- Work permits (and most visas) are typically multiple-entry, so re-entering without a fresh stamp doesn't affect your permit's validity or your ability to travel again.
The practical takeaway: don't worry about a missing entry stamp — your re-entry date is captured electronically, and when it comes time to document your residence history for PR, you can reference your travel/flight records and the electronic entry data rather than relying on a physical stamp.
