Hello,

I'm processing my file through an immigration consultant, and I have no direct access to the interface.

I received my AOR on Feb 19 2021, and I had done my medicals + submitted my biometrics.

I'm currently awaiting my PPR, or re-med request if they ask for one. But in the meantime, my passport expired.

I received an email 4 hours ago that I just saw from my immigration consultant saying that I should provide a valid passport within 10 days.

I am a resident of Lebanon, and passport renewals was suspended as of last month. Before that, the waiting list took 9+ months. Therefore, it is because of circumstances beyond my control that I couldnt renew my passport in time.

For reference :

I can't contact my lawyer before Monday to shed more light on the issue as I only have his professional / firm number.

Fellow CanadaVisa users who know of how the system works, is my entire process in danger ?

I'm panicking over here tbh.
