ATPL with lapsed MECIR

[B747ERNG]

Hi,

CASA ATPL application form checklist stated that:
(http://www.casa.gov.au/wcmswr/_asset...cl/form747.pdf)

- "Applicant holds or held an Australian Command (Multi-Engine Aeroplane) Instrument Rating"

If my MECIR has lapsed for more than 2 years since initial issue, can I still put in my application for ATPL without having to renewal the MECIR?

thanks

You even highlighted the relevant bit yourself. Have you held an instrument rating? Yes.
