Submitting two PR applications — what happens?

[Afra1233]

What happens if I submit an application twice, one in July and one in September? I submitted my first application before extending my PNP, and then submitted the PNP extension through a webform.


I called IRCC today, and they told me to wait until December. If I still don’t hear anything by then, they said I could submit another application with a letter explaining why I’m submitting it again.


But I’m thinking, if I’m going to wait until December anyway, why not just submit the second application now? Do I HAVE TO withdraw one of the applications?


I’m going to call IRCC again tomorrow and ask someone else, but what do you guys think?

Submitting two concurrent PR applications raises valid concerns about duplicate processing and possible delays, since IRCC treats each file separately. St Clair Property Records illustrate how parallel filings in unrelated systems can trigger cross‑checks that slow resolution, a nuance worth noting when managing multiple streams. In practice, expect each application to follow its own timeline and keep all documents meticulously organized to avoid inconsistencies. Clear communication with the visa office and regular status checks will give you the best chance of a smooth outcome.
