Since your SINP nomination has expired after you submitted your PR application (on September 25, 2024) and received an AOR on March 15, 2025, here’s what you need to know:
No, you usually do not need to request a nomination extension if:
- You submitted your PR application before the nomination expired, and
- You have already received your AOR, which you have.
IRCC locks in your nomination at the time your application is received (as long as it was valid then). So even if your SINP nomination expires afterward, it does not affect your application under the Provincial Nominee Program.
When would you need an extension?
You only need to request a nomination extension if your nomination expires before you submit your PR application to IRCC. That’s not your case.
