May 2019 Citizenship application - still waiting

[shankargv]

Hi, I applied for citizenship in may 2019 and its been a year now, still no invite for test. I believe this is because of the COVID situation and it makes sense. The question I have is, my PR expires in a few months and what should I do now if I dont test invite before then? Should I apply for a PR extension? Are they even processing PR extensions or are they also getting delayed.

Is there anyone in a similar situation? How'd you deal with it?

Any inputs will be really helpful. TIA.

If you are within Canada and do not have to travel overseas, you don't need to worry. The expiry of the PR card does not mean the expiry of PR Status. Your PR Status remains valid unless it is terminated in one of the legal ways.

it is mind boggling that after being PR for 4+ years, people still don't know the definition of PR.

If you don't travel, you don't need to renew PR card.

if you want to renew your PR card, currently it is 174 days backlog.

The intent of the question was because I was planning to travel. You're so quick to judge that I don't know the definition of PR, had your fun of belitting someone today? Now go rest.

Thanks for the processing time info though.

To be fair, most people here seem to misunderstand the difference between PR status and PR card and you did say in your post "my PR expires" which isn't a valid statement.

then tell me the difference between PR status and PR card? and how either of them expiring can affect the other? and how does that match your question?

174 days, wow! I applied to renew mine last month, guess I am waiting way longer than I expected.
