I would like to ask if the address proof is a mandatory document for applying OHIP. Can it be provided later?
Moreover, the validity period is generally 5 years?
Thanks.

Can I use the address in BC for applying that?
Once I get a permanent address, I will update the record.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your questions with us.
You can find some detailed information regarding what is required in our Settlement.Org What documents do I need to apply for a Health Card (OHIP)? article.
Here is an excerpt,
Proof of Residency
A document that has your name and current home address. This document confirms that your principal home is in Ontario.
As you can see, it must show that your principal home in in Ontario.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
