1. I don't know

2. and 3. Like they say, a PNP certificate is not a visa and will not allow you to go to Canada and work but it will allow you to apply for PR.  Once you get the PR visa, you can land in Canada and you will become a PR.

Thank you so much leon.
according to you wht is the processing time for AINP? and what do you suggest shall i go with AINP or directly with Federal skill worker program? plz advice which on is the best and faster?
Thanks again.

I don't know the current processing times.  The federal skilled worker has new rules and nobody knows how long it will take, their goal is 6-12 months but they may not reach that in the beginning.  The AINP used to be faster than skilled worker.  Now with all the people trying to apply for the H1B program, maybe they have slowed down.  Who knows.  If you qualify for both and you have the money, you can try applying for both and seeing which is faster.

Is it legal to apply for both at a same time? what happens if i apply for both?
