Don’t withdraw the application. Make sure u have extended work permit for next 2 years and side by side do express entry.I ask so many people about this everyone told me while 20 months is already done and withdraw file and apply in express entry in not a good option to do so .
Moreover I have to give my Ielts exam again and create new profile under express entry.
I have seen so many people apply in express entry waiting for year to get PPR. So waiting is the only option left for everyone .
