I recently nominated and based on my NOC code my skill level is A.I need to send my complete application to CIO Sydney,NS.
While checking the document check list imm5690e, Im confused with list# 12. Proof of Language Proficiency,particularly about the
statement "You must include a copy of your language test results with your application to CIC".

Does this mean I should submit a new test result along with my application? Or this applicable to NOC Skill level C and D only.
Please reply.

Yaaaas!
 
he is an earlier 2018 applicant. Applications of 2019 applicant are paused.
Where is your source or link?They said they will still continue to process applications.

However, you may be right, I don't know of anyone that has received PPR with a AR date after March 18th.
