Yes you did get my question right
Its 7 month and they haven’t got AOR ?
What if the CSQ expires without AOR?

Im worried that if we waited for my kids CSQ my own CSQ will expire ... can i file federal and file my kids Csq once available? Will it cause us more delay?

thankyou so much for answering :)
According to this link to renew your work permit.
https://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/immigrate-settle/temporary-workers/stay-quebec/application-csq/workers-quebec/after-csq.html

Relevant part:

To benefit from this waiver, your application for a work permit must be accompanied by a copy of your CSQ, your valid offer of employment and proof of payment of the application fees for permanent residence or acknowledgment of receipt.


So it means AOR is not necessary, only proof of payment for Federal PR application is necessary. But you have to lodge Federal PR before your CSQ expires like your agent said. CSQ can expire while Federal app is in progress, which is not a problem.

With the way things are going in Quebec immigration dept, I suggest you do not wait for your kid's CSQ because MIDI is delaying spousal sponsorship CSQs nowadays.

The current wait times for Federal PR is 22 months. So its better to be in the queue right now than waiting for your kid's CSQ to file for Federal. When the time comes, federal will ask for your kid's CSQ and you can provide it that time.

Transfer to local visa office is the last stage, and PPR will be the next. Its actually a good sign! I had my PPR a month after! Congrats in advance!!?
Hello,
My file moved to Pretoria in December 2019 and on 31 Jan 2020 i was still application received.
Out of stress, i deleted ECAS.
How can i get in back?
Thanks

Your question "What if CSQ expires without getting an AOR." just made me anxious.

There is one person i know in this forum who probably can help answer this question.
Hey @UAEAbudhabi2019 i have seen your post mentioning that your CSQ is expired in August 2019 and you already have applied to Feds in july but still without AOR.
So, my question: What did CIC replied when you mention this fact that your Csq is expired and your application is already recieved by CIC but still not in process???

Hi ngkapadiya,

When i called CIC, they said the application will be process since the CSQ was valid when they received my application. I'm just waiting for the AOR.
Hope we received soon as July applicants haven't received AOR as of now due to quota.

Hi Jayswife,
I agree with @nikhil56 , the main applicant must submit the application while the CSQ is still valid and just to follow the remaining CSQ's once requested by the IRCC.

Nice ! that means your eligibility is done. I'd say you should be getting MR about a month after pre-arrival letter
