Finally I received CSQ in the mail! YAY! ♥

how many pages did you upload on GCKEY ?
Upload only one page, the actual CSQ.
But the actual CSQ that is destinated to IMMIGRATION-CANADA, how to tell?
- You probably receive 2 copies of your CSQ, one for you (REQUÉRANT) and another one destined to IRCC (IMMIGRATION-CANADA).
you can see that on the bottom-right corner of your CSQ.
good luck

Hey Freddiemercury,

I am in the exact same situation as mili_0923 as there is no way for me to upload my CSQ in GCkey. Is there a special way you did it? I tried using the webform but it didn't seem to work..

hey guys, so IRCC at least for me, opened on GCKEY a "Document Replacement Request" and then I uploaded my scanned CSQ via that option.
here's the screenshot of how to get there:

Let me know if you guys got it, or if you need more help!

When I logged in on GCKEY & followed as per ur instructions, there is a message saying that ‘There are no required documents’
I think because my application was submitted on PR Portal by my lawyer. Technically, he would update my CSQ letter via PR Portal…? He is the one who has submitted our application.

in that case, can you ask him to do it, as I did!?
also... maybe you could upload the CSQ via a webform!? (not sure how the webform works tho)

Hey everyone. I'm waiting for my CSQ approval but funnily enough yesterday I got Pre Arrival letter. Does this mean that IRCC is still processing our application while we're waiting for CSQ?

March 20th applicant

Thanks!

My husband he submitted the csq vis webform because he received a message on June 20 from IRCC requesting to submit csq within 60 days. That letter mentioned how to submit the csq. So we just followed the process. Fingers crossed hoping for a quick response!

Hello i am a csq march applicant,
I called MIFi yesterday and they told me that they are waiting some answers from "Emploi Quebec" since March but still no answer. They told me it is normal with everyone and no worries...
Have you passed through the same process? Has anyone of you received the same answr when calling MIFI?
They took too long to issue the csq..since the beginning of march and still nothing...

Hey! I am so sorry to hear this. I have not heard this. And new of the applicants who applied in May got their CSQ approved. I m not sure why yours is taking so long. Maybe you can use your local MP to find out more. I have read in some threads about it.
