Well no one can predict that . You never know you can get pr from paper based application in 2 months or 24 months or express entry in 2 months or 1 year.ok thank you so much for the information but I am also a bit concerned about the time they will take for the paper based application and even about the EE as they issued 27000 itas so do u know anything about the timelines if I go ahead and apply express too?? I got all documents ready even a new pcc
