The PR application was returned because it says I did not include CSQ, but it was included..!

Hello.
My friend applied for the PR in October 2024 using the CSQ that she obtained when her mother applied for her CSQ (she was a dependent during that time and now is in an adult age). The CSQ was delivered on June 2023 and will expire on June 2025. The CSQ has my friend's name, and the expiration date as well.
Today, she got an email from CIO Sydney saying that the application does not meet the requirement of R 10 of IRPA (i.e. "You must provide the Certificat(s) de Selection du Quebec (CSQ) issued to you by the Province of Quebec"), and that since it is considered incomplete it is returned to her with the processing fee.. However, in her application, she included CSQ..! I helped her filling out the forms together, and we are now very confused what is going on.. Does anyone know possible reason this could happen? Please help us..! Thanks!

Did you attach the CSQ or the letter of approbation from MIFI? In this case you should apply again

Thank you for your comment. The CSQ was included in the application. Maybe I should apply again (I will just use "I" although I am asking for my friend). I got also advised from someone else that it might be because I used the CSQ that I got as a dependent under my mom and that CSQ is not valid anymore when I want to apply as an adult independent (i.e. I need to apply for new CSQ). Have you heard or know about this fact as well? Thank you!

I think this is correct. I don't think you can apply with this CSQ by yourself, you could have done it with your sponsor. I'd suggest you consult with a lawyer to be sure.
