[HELP] paying biometric fees

[uditkapoor]

hi all,

I applied for student visa through SDS on 18th June 2019, but for some reason only paid the application fees and couldn't pay the biometric fees. How can I pay it now and avoid further delays/ rejection?

go to the VFS site and schedule your appointment, it would ask you to pay the fees as well OR go to VFS and tell them you want to do an on the spot biometrics.

I did try to schedule an appointment, but there was no payment option. Regarding on the spot biometrics, I heard that I would require a Biometric Invitation Letter, which I can't get now since biometric option wasn't selected online.

By searching online for answers, I found that I can pay online here https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/order.do?category=10097

and then submit the receipt here https://secure.cic.gc.ca/enquiries-renseignements/case-cas-eng.aspx?mission=New Delhi&AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

Does anyone have any idea if this will work?

why don't you go and just do an on the spot one, if you pay and attach the receipt you would have to choose from available dates and may have to wait..
Just an FYI, your file is not processed until you submit the bio metrics, so going in person and doing an on the spot is fastest I believe.

Thanks for all the information. I don't know much about the process, so I have one more question, do you know if I need a biometric invitation letter for going walk in or not?

when you do an on the spot request you would not have it, invitation letter are only for people who paid in advance and have an appointment.
PS you would have to wait longer that other people. take all your docs along and photocopies as well.
