The goal is to process in under 6 months but the reality is often very different. This is the case for many programs. There is also an extremely small quota and likely more than the quota apply every year leading to backlogs.
Pakistan definitely has longer processing times. I would suggest finding a thread with those applying for sponsorship from Pakistan to get a better idea about processing times.
Yes but not as in demand as some other healthcare jobs. Nobody can really predict what is going on with PNP programs now that they have much smaller quotas. All you can really do is wait while still working towards increasing your score and working towards a plan b.
Quickly for Lebanon office is a bit of a joke. They are not known for their fast processing. All you can do is wait. There are quotas so IRCC only approves a certain amount of applications every month to slowly spread out the quota over the year.
Impossible to say could be weeks but also could be years. They still have to do background checks and then final review. Pre-arrival letter is not tied to processing time. Posted processing time outside Quebec is still 36 months so those who are receiving PPRs are the rare cases being...

Could be for a variety of reasons. Eligibility can even be reassessed at any points until passport is stamped don’t book any flights. Actually even after passport is stamped the TRV can be canceled electronically but that is rare for new TRVs.
You should be working towards other pathways while you wait unless you work in certain profession in very high demand and have a high score. Also consider learning French, increasing IELTS score, etc.
Don’t think anyone knows. It partially has to do with the backlog of applicants from last year and your NOC. If you’re a nurse for example chances of endorsement and approval are much higher than other professions.
Nobody could have predicted the political fortunes or the Liberal party. This will be written about in political science textbooks as the craziest comeback.
