"The CSQ must be valid when the applicant submits an application for permanent residence to IRCC (Centralized Intake Office [CIO] in Sydney). If the applicant’s CSQ expires before the receipt of the application at the CIO, the application is incomplete and must be returned to the applicant. The applicant must submit a new application for a CSQ to MIDI. If the applicant’s CSQ is valid at the receipt of the application at the CIO, the CSQ will be considered valid until a decision is rendered on the permanent residence application by IRCC."Hello everyone,
Congrats to all who are getting replies and see the progress in their application.
Just wondering, if someone is in a similar situation, any guidance would be great, as we have sent our application to the Sydney office, (outland, application sent on Feb 17, 2020), no AOR so far.
Actually, upon first web form inquiry, the reply was "We have previously received the Use of representative (IMM5476) form you submitted with the application; however, the authorization has been deemed incomplete and due to a system limitation, the form could not be saved to the file. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. In order for us to respond to your enquiry, we invite you to resubmit the form by filling out the IRCC Web form".
As requested, the "Use of representative" form has been forwarded by filling out the IRCC Webform. Later, the reply received i-e "We have verified the information you provided and can confirm that we received your application. It will be processed according to the date it was received".
Not sure, what would be the next expected step, no AOR so far, it's been almost close to 8 months. If our CSQs (Applicant, Spouse, Chlid) would expire during this wait, what we will do...? if we will not get AOR which indicates the "Completeness of our application" and during this time our CSQs will expire than what we will do in that situation...? Any reply would be a great help!
Thank you in advance.
