Good Morning

I came to Canada 6 years ago as a refugee and I recently got my confirmation of permanent residency on the 10 of may 2018. I got asked to resend photos for my initial PR card on the 1st of July and the letter stated that if I did not send them in 30 days, my application for permanent residency would be cancelled. I resent my pictures right away and they were received on the 5th of July. I have not yet received my PR card .

My question is , I have to travel out of the country on the 2nd of august and the agent I spoke to said the pr cards processing is behind meaning by the time I have to travel I won’t have my card yet.

Given that I came to Canada as a refugee, but 2 months ago I received my confirmation of PR; am I eligible to apply for permanent resident travel document to return to Canada? or am I still considered a refugee since I haven’t received my PR card?
