Yes, you can. Updated CIC with a mailig address and wait for the CoPR. Once received you can re-enter Canada
as a permanent resident.

You can, but you can also use the address you reside at. I recommend using the address where you're staying.


2. Does it affect the processing time of my application?

No, it does not affect your application. Might take a little longer to mail passport and visa, but other than
that you're fine.
See comments in red above.

Thank You!!

Actually I have provided my friend's Toronto address for mailing. Do I need to inform CIC to change it as I am moving to my home country?

Or I will just inform CIC about my residential address.

Can I re-enter Canada with visitor visa ?

Sorry for troubling you a lot but I am really worried and don't want to come in trouble.

If you move to your home country, I would update CIC with that address.
And if you intend to come to Canada as a visitor during the process, then you can keep your friends' address
on file as I guess you'll be staying at his/her place for the time being??
