I really feel for those call center agents who are borthered with repetitive questions.They may be repeatedly asked to check the applicants' status for thousands of times which makes the job so tedious while they have to maintain their good attitudes.Other than the job security and good benifits i believe some of them maynot meet the LICO to sponsor their parents.But
Come on. Call center agents in the public sector are paid well.

Hi All, I applied under PGP 2019 for my parents using my PR card as the document of residence. However in a month I will going through the Citizenship Oath ceremony and right there they will take away my PR card.

What should I do in this case, as CIC can ask for the same sponsor PR card later when the PGP application is under processing?

Just explain you are now citizen and send the passport and citizenship certificate.

At least they dont have to face the clients in person. But I understand what you mean. In my line of work I deal with people too. Asking repeated same questions and complaining about very similar things. Repetitive.

These federal call center agents are compensated for this kind of work environment. I believe they are unionized. I work in the public sector. We have unionized call center agents as well. Their hourly rate is $30+ plus hourly bonus for night shift+ overtime pay for holidays. Some of them make $100k per year.
