Hello.

Any idea how to pay for biometric AFTER the application to a Visa was submitted online?
They've sent an email asking to pay the fees so they can send the letter for the VAC, however, mentioned this can only be done through the account.
My understanding they were supposed to collect the fee when the form was submitted, but this didn't happen. At the moment, there is no way to pay through my account.
Tried contacting CIC, but they are hard to reach by phone.

Thanks.

Hi All,

I applied 6 Sept with upfront medical - medical got approved on 13 Sept and today i got a Biometric Validity Letter today.. i am very confused. Is it a good sign? not sure... why does the letter say "for subsequent temporary resident applications to Canada" - does this mean i SOWP for my wife is rejected?

Please clarify... Thanks.

Biometrics is a required task. The validity letter is just an acknowledgement that IRCC received what you've submitted. It does not mean that they've come with a decision already. Just wait.
