Topic: Incorrect name of principal applicant in Biometric Instruction Letter

Hi,

Today we received the biometric instruction letter for my parents. In the paper application, I submitted my parents' name in the format :
Given Name (______ Kaur/Singh) + Last Name (Our Surname). In the Biometric Instruction Letter for my mother, the Last Name is missing and she is addressed with only her Given Name. However, in the instruction letter for my father, we see the complete name i.e. Given Name + Last Name.

I then noticed that even in the linked account online, my mother's last name is missing. Should I be concerned? Can we go the Visa Application Centre with this biometric letter?


I have already submitted a webform to IRCC asking for clarification, but what more can I do.
I can try calling CIC but I am currently in India, so not sure how successful that will be. Is there another way to reach CIC. We submitted the application to CIC Ottawa office.

Many thanks for some suggestions!

hi

after bio-metrics letter, applicant and dependents need to visit a VAC outside Canada for bio-metrics and photograph.

Do we need to submit anything from this process to cic ? Or everything will be taken care of by the VAC ?

thanks
 
please share your Medical Passed date.

The ecas still says they have sent the medical documents. completed on Nov 08, uploaded by Nov 14
 
Please check myCIC to get Medical passed date.

myCIC has no updates on the medical yet. Below is what i can see :

"We have requested a medical exam. Check your messages below for details."
 
For Medical passed : myCIC update with Medical passe date & Ecas new line added " Medical received"
The line under my additional doc (& I guess for most others) says: We do not need additional documents.

You know why your one showing N/A?

before it was showing "We do not need additional document" . after PCC and travel history request from NDVO it was changed to "Not Applicable".
