Hello

I currently hold a visitor record (had to extend my stay from an open work permit) to maintain my status while applying for PR. I applied for PR in december, however, I had to leave Canada but will be going back soon. I also hold an eTA passport. I am wondering what I should be saying to the boarder agent once I arrive in Canada. Should I let him know that I have applied for PR and will be extending my visitor record to maintain my status (it expires on March 20), or should I be saying that I am in Canada to visit?

Thank you!
