Will the CSA Pro renew a recently expired CSA Associate?

Thank you for answering.

Follow up question;

Do you have any official docs or links that verify this?

The reason I ask, is because the quoted verbiage below, from the this page also linked below, gives the impression that it will count for recertification of my expired cert?

"Recertification for the Associate-level certification Take the Associate exam You can take the Associate-level exam for the certification you already have. For example, if you are an AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate, you can retake the current AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate exam to recertify. You can use your 50% discount voucher from the Benefits section of your AWS Certification account to recertify or apply it to any future certification exam you wish to pursue.

Earn a Professional-level certification You can also satisfy the recertification requirement by passing either the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional exam for the Architect path or AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional exam for the Developer or Operations path. For example, if you pass the AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional exam, this will satisfy your AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate recertification requirement."

I guess my issue here, is that I cannot find any source that explicitly states it will not renew an expired cert

"For Foundational- and Associate-level certifications, you can also satisfy the recertification requirement for a current certification by passing or recertifying with a higher-level role-based exam." https://aws.amazon.com/certification/policies/recertification/

Notice the word "current". Also, I know this from personal experience. I let my associate lapse for a couple weeks and took the pro exam and that did not recertify my associate.

Oof. Well it sounds like I have to take an extra test then. I really want to have "all five".

Thank you for your time.
