Do candidates with PNs have some benefits except from extra 600 points?

I wonder if I get nomination will it be simpler and quicker to get PR or it's like I got ITA without any PN? Does it make any difference?

I suppose the candidates with PNs must be reviewed quicker because the CIC understands that the candidate was already checked by province.

What's your opinion? Please share...

Are there some additional advantages except from extra 600 points?

No one knows for sure yet. But one can hazard a guess on the basis of existing evidence of how CIC treats applicants with LMIA vis-a-vis applicants without that.

Based on the members experiences posted on this forum, CIC hasn't appeared to be in an unseemly hurry to invite all 600+ applicants or been unreasonably slow with the other applicants. What that probably indicates is that, irrespective of one's CRS score, CIC will continue to be methodical about their internal processes. Some applicants will move faster and others will move relatively slower but that's because of their own life situations and not their CRS score.

It is sensible to expect that PNs should be eased through the system because they're "pre-approved" but so are the LMIAs and some of those from Feb draws are still awaiting their turn. Only time will tell...
