I am planning to move soon, and with the current processing times I'm hearing about, if I enter my current address in the PR portal, I might have to stay at my current location for a lot longer than expected, just to receive my PR card in the mail.

Can I use a friend's address as my mailing address? I have seen that you can't use a third party address, so am hesitant to put in anything other than my current address.

Yes, you can use your friend's address as your mailing address. Also, you can call IRCC and change your mailing address too.
