Importing XLIFF file not working

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Importing the XLIFF file does not work.
Solution:
Ask the translator to get the translated XLIFF file (1) following the steps:
- Go to WPML > Translation Management > Jobs > Cancel the job
- Go to WPML > Translation Management > Add the post (not translated) to the translation basket
- Assign the job to you
- Go to WPML > Translations and download the XLIFF file (2)
- Copy the ID from file 2 to file 1 that you receive from the translation service
- Reimport file 1 to your site in the Translations queue

katarinaK-4	Hello. I have multiligual site based on WordPress + Elementor Pro + WPML. My default language is czech. Additional languages are english (en) and slovak (sk). I exported XLIFF files and sent them to translator. Now I have translated XLIFFs. However (I don't know why) slovak files have target-language="en" so I changed it to "sk". Now when I'm importing these XLIFFS, it always ends as english translation. I'm not able to import english XLIFFs to english and slovak XLIFFs to slovak language of my website. Can you please help me? I made some mistake I guess. Thanks a lot.
