Actually I was wrong if you have a PR Card with you then you can stay outside Canada for 3 years out of the 5 years of your PR Card, it can be continuous or non- continuous and to answer your current question the PRTD is valid for 6 months so you can stay outside Canada for 6 months with PRTD and those 6 months start from the date of issue so I would say that if you are leaving with just ECOPR or without ECOPR then apply for PRTD at least 2 months before you are planning to come back to Canada.

Thanks, PNP via Express Entry from Montreal VO
Apologies, I have two more questions:
1. If I am flying to the US and then entering Canada via a land border, will the US inquire about my legal status in Canada? If they do, should I present my COPR or my visa stamp along with my work permit?
2. If I leave Canada after receiving my COPR, will my PR card still be delivered to my Canadian address while I am away?
1. US won't care about your legal status in Canada as long as you have a visa, Canadian Border Patrol might ask that question while entering Canada and you just show them your COPR and Visa that's all no need to show your WP as you are already a Permanent Resident now.
2. yes it will be delivered to the mail box of the address that you mentioned during P2.
I think in Oct they were following patterns in issuing ECOPR's because my friend got P2 a day before me then next day I got P2 then during ECOPR also he got it on Oct 10 and then I got my ECOPR on Oct 11 but right now it doesn't seem like they are following any sort of pattern although I am still sure that most of Oct P2's will get their ECOPR this month.
P2 on October 1 PNP non express, still no ecopr. Anyone else has similar timeline?
Actually I am very worried,reason being my employer is threatening me to fire within next few days as project has lapsed...Do you know what can be done on this scenario, will it impact my permanent residency?? Thanks
What if persona has lost their job and was on closed work permit in Quebec and now waiting for ECOPR...Will loosing job on closed work permit impact permanent residency file, it's Quebec PNP... Kindly advise
