    Get home country passport back after becoming PR

    these same CBSA officers will not support you nor confirm anything in writing if you are referred for cessation, the law is quite clear (https://www.irb-cisr.gc.ca/en/legal-policy/legal-concepts/Pages/RefDef12.aspx)- what you do is up to you. Also your logic here doesn't stand as these are not...

    Boosting of PR processing

    the other thing I would do if your processing time is more than the normal processing time, call IRCC and ask them to flag your application to your case worker. The agent can only do this if your processing time has exceeded what is considered 'normal'. They did this for me with my PR card.

    India tourist visa

    I traveled to India on my RTD no PR and answered that question saying yes, I claimed asylum in Canada. I would recommend you also answer honestly and apply for the visa the way any other Canadian citizen would.

    Can someone explain dis to me

    I got that update many times and it was always good news, I would recommend calling IRCC and asking about your specific application. The agents at IRCC each time told me my application was approved and then 1-2 weeks later that was updated online.

    Passport Request

    you can only retrieve your passport after PR, not before. also you can lose your refugee status and right to remain in canada if you use your national passport for any travel, or even if you renew it. as a refugee you should only use an RTD to travel.
