While your application is with homeoffice, your immigration status remains the same even if the previous visa expires.
For naturalisation timelines please see the posts on naturalisation timelines currently (I guess this is around 3-4 months as of now)

You did not mention via which route you applied for naturalisation. If you had done this via NCS, then you must be having most of the original documents with you and if the documents list is sufficient then you can take a call on applying for PR card.

Thanks for your quick response. i applied via post and money has been taken already but i only panic because i applied with EEA 2 RC without PR ticker but i have already complete 5yrs and i had many documents to back it up with my application.

Thanks
