Expired CSQ

[sonus]

Hello,

I applied for CSQ and got it in 2012 valid throught 2015, however I did not continue with the process once I got my CSQ because I wanted to finish my studies. Now I'm ready to move forward, and with an expired CSQ for skilled worker, I don't know what can be my next step. I need help, advise, please!

Sorry.You need to apply fresh. Your expired CSQ is of no value now.

Yeah... Your CSQ can expire _during_ the permanent residency federal process, and the officers will apply for an extension if needed. But with an expired CSQ, I'm afraid you cannot apply for PR.
