I would say book a flight now for April (couple days before the visa expiry date) and also buy the insurance.
Insurance will cost you maybe $100 max but if you get everything done before the expiry date then cancel the flight.

BLS is the worst I have seen. We got my mum's passport renewed and they put the signatures upside down. Instead of 3 weeks procedure, it took us 7 weeks and delayed our PGP submissions completely.
Hello Folks,
I got an email from CIC today regarding my parents bio metrics. they already done the bio-metrics in 2017. Can they have to go again? Please advise?

I checked few online websites for booking ticket and they don't have the option of insurance. I was thinking of buying that too.
May be I will contact independent agents and see if they can do something about it.
Go through flight network or Cheapoair (https://www.cheapoair.ca/) and they always have option to buy insurance.
Did it previously say on the Review of additional documents section of your MyCIC, "We do not need additional documents" if you can remember?
I only ask because mine has never changed and it still says that even though the agent confirms that they have received all the documentation.
thanks for sharing, did CIC allowed you submit your documents even after 30 days that they allow? How did you reached out to them asking for grace in time.
I think I will also get late because I've time till 25th Dec.
Hello Everyone!

Thanks for this answer, bit of a relief that it is an email and, as someone else said they are going out in batches, this is probably why my son's not had it yet. I would just like to know which visa office we are assigned to - although I guess it is London as we are in the UK.Many people have confusions about email/mail issue. Not sure if people put an e-mail address in the below two forms and if it is the same e-mail address and if that e-mail address matched with the REP forms (if one provided).
The SA approval will come to the e-mail address provided in IMM1344.
The BIO, IME etc will go the e-mail address provided in IMM008.
Tomorrow you will get DM for SA.
For documents emailed to IRCC you just had to call them and they would have told you whether documents have been received or not .
Big congratulations to you!! Yaaayyy!!
I didnt have to ask for extension. The first was just a generic email for PCC and since I had not submitted 3 weeks after that, they sent me another request with 30 days time and I could send in that. Send them a webform request explaining your situation.
Oh you can also ask for Tatkaal service for BLS
I called them after a week. The agent just told me there was something on my file done 3 days ago but he didnt mention what it was, neither confirmed that documents were uploaded. So I decided to send them again when my last day for submission was closer.
