Hello All,
I have a couple of queries which need your help.
1) I'm currently staying in Canada on Work Permit which has been approved until Jan, 2023. I have applied for TRV and got it approved as well. Also, I've applied for PR application and got an email about the PR confirmation portal. I'm currently planning to travel to India after receiving CoPR using my TRV visa. Is that possible option?
2) When will my resident status change from Work Permit holder to PR. Is it after I receive my CoPR or after my PR card?

Thank you all in advance.

After you get CoPR your previous visas become invalid. Your status changes once you receive CoPR. PR card is not related to PR status. A person can be PR with an expired PR card so same way you are PR even if you don't have PR card yet

You can but airlines need PR card for travel. Some people in the past have shown old visa to get on plane and then show CoPR to the CBSA agent at airport. But there is always a risk to travel without PR card.
