[b] 2008–2009 Actual Revenue of $488.6M is $22.1M higher than Planned Revenue of $466.5M. The increase is primarily due to a higher volume of permanent residents and a larger number of Permanent Resident Cards (PRC) issued in response to the PRC Renewal Campaign ($48.5M). This increase is partially offset by decreases in Temporary Resident Program ($14.5M) and Citizenship Program ($12.4M). The decrease in Temporary Resident Program is mainly attributed to a lower than planned volume of visitors, while the decrease in the Citizenship Program is related to a lower than planned number of citizenship grants and proofs processed during the year.
