the time you are in Canada with a temporary visa, count 50% for the citizenship calculation. It is like that since forever.
You can only claim a total of 365 days actually with a SP or WP. So after spending 2 years with WP, all remaining days are not counted. Basically, either you are here with an SP and WP for 5 years or you are here only for 2 years - all you can claim is 365 days.

It depends on how you are receiving the COPR
Case 1: CoPR through PR confirmation portal - In this case you need to upload the picture in the portal.
Case 2: CoPR is sent directly in your email - In this case you need to send a physical photo to the VO through mail.
I have got CoPR via email reply.
But I also got invitation for pr confirmation portal later.
Is it ok to apply via both?

Wow !!!
I am not sure what would be the best process!! You wait for an expert to advise. But if I was at your place I should had done both.
Yeah I have mailed the photo same day I received the CoPR and later I am also following the other method. But just want to know if anyone had experienced the same? @legalfalcon comments?

Yes it was the thing I read before.
They do not count PR processing time for us.

When you receive the COPR, the instructions are to mail the photo as it is used to generate your PR card.

You will receive log in credential is next couple of days.
After logging into the portal , you two will have to declare that you are in Canada , update address , upload photo and submit the application. After that , you will be able to download the COPR in next couple of days and the PR card will be mailed to your address within 3-6 weeks.

3 to 6 weeks? That would be amazing because I read about 6 months somewhere!!

That's what I have seen so far.
Sending physical photos via mail to the IRCC office takes a lot of time.
From the previous posts, I have seen people getting their PR cards with 3-6 weeks via the PR confirmation portal.
I am also waiting for the PR card for the last 1 week. I uploaded the picture on 12 May 2021.
