Hi - If person wants to reapply PR via express entry (favourable chances 470+ score based on his prior Canadian exp) - he should officially renounce PR first or it will automatically be cancelled at time of new express entry processing?

If he shud renounce PR first - what is the quickest way to renounce PR - apply PRTD in other country OR fill renounce PR application or mail to CIC IRCC about new PR application?
Applying for express entry won't cancel existing status.

One can apply to renounce acc to this procedure:

I expect that applying for PRTD in expectation of being refused and having PR status revoked would take longer, but do not know.
