Hello friends,

We applied for Canada visitor visa from the US.Two days ago, we gave our biometrics in a USCIS ASC location.My spouse's details immediately got reflected in the IRCC portal and it says biometric completed for her.However there are no such updates yet in my profile in IRCC portal.All these fields are showing blank for me while they are populated for my spouse.
  • Biometrics number:
  • Date of biometrics enrolment:
  • Expiry date:
Just got perplexed on why system behaved differently for two biometrics done at same time in the same location.Is this normal ? Any specific action required from my side to ensure the biometrics are in place ,before the 30 days deadline ,which is fast approaching?

I queried the biometric validity using the link https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/extapp/bioStatusQuery and I could see my details there.

Please guide if anyone experienced this scenario with the applications? Appreciate any inputs. Thank you!

Hello! It’s not uncommon for there to be a slight delay in the IRCC portal updating biometrics information, even when biometrics are completed at the same time. Since you were able to query your biometric validity and see your details there, it’s a good sign that your information has been successfully recorded. You may want to wait a few more days for the system to update, but if it doesn’t reflect in the portal soon, consider reaching out to IRCC directly to ensure everything is in order before your 30-day deadline. Keep an eye on your profile, but it seems like there’s no immediate cause for concern!

Waiting for updates can feel like gambling france https://prince-ali.casino/

  • Wait for a few more days: System delays like this are not uncommon. It might take a few extra days for the biometrics to reflect in your IRCC account.
  • Contact IRCC Support: If there’s no update after a reasonable amount of time, you can submit a web form to IRCC or call their helpline to inquire about the status of your biometrics.
  • Ensure you meet the deadline: Since you mentioned a 30-day deadline, keep track of your timeline. If the biometrics are not updated close to the deadline, escalate your inquiry with IRCC, citing the biometric validity you confirmed online.
  • Document everything: Keep all receipts and confirmation emails/documents you received during the biometrics process. This documentation will be helpful in case you need to provide proof of completion.

In a choice between whether this post was created by a bot, or an idiot, I'm going to guess a bot - because completely useless to provide this advice to someone who reported having the issue resolved already.

Tough call, though. Could be an idiot.
