You will be required to do another biometrics for a PR application despite having a valid one from a previous tourist visa application. IRCC will notify you when to provide it via Biometric Request Letter. I had a similar experience, my mum did a biometric last year for her supervisa application and she had to do another one last month for the PGP on request from IRCC.

Regarding AOR, I submitted my application in October 2023 and I got my AOR in Jan 2024, all the best.

For you to see status of your PGP application, your application needs to be linked to the secure GCKey account. You will be able to accomplish that by creating a secure GCKey account or using an existing one; then follow the linking process. Good luck!

My previous correspondences like additional document request and AOR were via email. While my biometric request was via GCKey account; that after linking my account to GCKey.
