When is it too risky to submit PR before your PGWP expires

[JaleelGuimba]

Mine expires mid november and wanted to submit my PR by July-August
is that too risky?

Risky how? When did you get invitation to apply for PR? If just submitting an EE profile then you submit a profile now, if eligible.

First make an express entry profile than worry about this.
Process is as follows:
Understand ircc process first than
1.create express entry profile
2.wait for ITA
3.you got ITA gather all necessary documents submit them
4.After you got their AOR and your work permit is still valid you can apply for BOWP if it's expiring soon.
Afterwards just wait for your pr if nothing goes wrong.Processing 6 months to 1 year depends (fastest 3 month)

That's nonsense! Just put your EE profile up whenever you can to maximize the chances of getting an ITA. No matter when your PGWP expires, submit your EE profile.

I need my language test results first yes?

Of course you need language tests to submit a profile.

Ok registered and will get scores by feb 23rd
so by then should I submit even with a low score of 480?
I said before wanted to improve my score by july-august through french

Get the test done and submit your profile. IRCC is known for doing unpredictable draws, what good will you get by not being in the pool? If you went through a costly course to get a PR, why not submit your application?

yes! Submit. Also, you can add/update you scores you in your EE profile. Your questions are very basic.

About French exam - since you mentioned you aren't very confident about your fluency, I would recommend giving it once so that you can scope out actual weak areas. It is easy to assume that you know your weak areas, but usually people learn a lot more about themselves after giving an exam. So, if you can bump that early (let's say Feb), you can give yourself enough time to fix errors by Jun/July/Aug (instead of learning about your weak areas in Jun/Jul/Aug).

So I should take the exam now and see what I did wrong to improve?

I would suggest that. You can give a mock exam as an alternative, but I couldn't find good mock exams or a fair assessment of my speaking and writing through mock exams easy. If you give now, you'll have a data point that you can use to say I'll take X months to improve myself. Would be more helpful that way.
