Îf an admission happens relatively quickly, the House will be at 441 members for almost a decade.

Quite reasonable to assume they'd amend the 1929 act sometime in 2019 or 20.

Incidentally, PR's six representatives would almost certainly come from two different parties, and it'll be interesting to see how closely they'll cooperate with the Democratic Caucus. (Presidential elections will be a different matter; the Republicans probably needn't bother putting up a slate of electors.)
