August 22, 2018: application received at CPC missisauga

That's good news! They don't ask people to pay PRRF again after it was refunded unless they want to approve your application. They denied your application already and reopened your file. That to me is pointing to real positive direction. I wouldn't worry about the time. But, it won't take much longer.
hopefully.. if i apply for tourist visa for them or supervisa, would it be denied since they have a pending application for PR?

Hey did you provide the SIN or NOA or both?

1) Contact the responsible visa office if they require any additional documents. They will reply fairly quick.
2) Yes. They must follow the rules just like any other PRs. The two years in Canada does not need to be continuous and some times abroad may be counted towards 730 days as well. See this link for more details http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=727&top=4
3) It is possible. Contact your local visa office and Ottawa office for change of mailing address, and that you want to do "inland landing" in Canada. They will advise you how to proceed.

It appears that your parents aren't so keen to come to Canada or at least not in a rush to come here. They had TRV that has never been used and you are now inquiring if they need to live in Canada for 2 years to keep their PR status. Interesting.....
Thank you for the response.

So just email them at CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca with details like application number, full name, dob as to why is it showing "Additional documents are required for procesing your application "? Also i will send an email to New Delhi LVO if my parents receive the PPR while they are visiting this summer

My father had to travel extensively for work and had no time in the past but now he is retired so planning to visit :)

No. Some people apply for super visa after they got a pass on medical because super visa requirements are almost the same as PGP (only the latest NOA is required for super visa Vs three consecutive NOAs for PGP). So, it makes it faster for CIC to process since they have already processed most of it already. The only thing additional requirement for super visa is one year health insurance for your parents.

It should be pretty easy for tourist visa as well. They will not deny it because you have a pending PR application. That's not how it works.
