This letter refers to your application to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) for one of the
following documents to come to or remain in Canada:
• temporary resident permit;
• work permit;
• study permit;
• temporary resident visa;
• visitor record;
• permanent resident application; or
• permanent resident card renewal.
Under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and its Regulations, you are required to have your
fingerprints scanned and your photograph taken (your biometrics) at a biometric collection service point to help
Visa Officers determine if you may enter or stay in Canada. Most applicants will need to give their biometrics at
a biometric collection service point abroad before they travel to Canada.
Only those who are eligible to apply for a work permit or a study permit at a designated port of entry can give
their biometrics upon arrival in Canada.
Note: If you received this letter you must give your biometrics before coming to Canada and are not
eligible to have your fingerprints and photograph taken at a Canadian port of entry. If you are already
in Canada, you will have to leave the country to provide your biometrics.
Why is IRCC collecting my fingerprints and photograph?
Your biometric information will be used under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and its
Regulations to determine if you may enter or stay in Canada. Your fingerprints may also be shared with law
enforcement agencies in Canada and may be used for the enforcement of any Canadian or provincial law. For
more information about why the Government of Canada collects biometrics, how it uses your information and
how it protects your privacy, please visit:
