I mean in PR application the time we need for biometrics does not dealy the applications, currently, if it takes 3 months to give your biometrics if does not add three months to your waiting time. Whereas for WP or Study Permits estimated time does not include Biometric time. So PR processing will not be put on hold it will continue meanwhile you provide the biometrics within the stated time ( Biometric time is extended because of COVID-19)

Hi everyone, I received my AOR on may 29th, 2020. I paid 1125 online but for the difference amount should I wait for them to ask for it or should I pay it online? If I should pay online then what is the procedure?
And for Biometrics mine is still valid until 2027 (the one I got during my study permit) so do I have to get the Biometrics done again? If yes, then how can I get it done in Toronto?
Please do let me know soon.
Thank you!

They mentioned in the email that if you did not pay the additional fees they will send you a request to do so. However, if I were you and to avoid any delay, and as many others did as you can see in previous posts, I would pay it and upload the receipt by the Web Form.
If you are on your own so you will have to pay 285$ the difference
Biometrics for visitor, student or work visa can not be used for PR, you will have to get that done when they send you the BIL, and when Service Canada resume work. you can keep checking this website to know when they reopen and how to book an appointment. https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/where-to-give-biometrics.asp
Good luck to all of us!!!!
Check below to know how to pay.
1. Calculate the total fee difference you need to pay
- Add up all the “payable difference” in the table below that applies to your situation
3. Under “Quantity”, enter the payable difference amount
- Each payment generates 1 receipt. You can pay as a single payment or repeat this step to make multiple payments.
- The receipt will be sent to the e-mail address you entered in the ePayment portal.
5. From the Document checklist page, upload the receipt(s) for the fee difference under “Optional Documents: Client Information”.
6. Proceed to pay the rest your application fees when you submit your application.
You should pay the difference through this link https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/order.do?category=10115&lang=en after that send you receipt through web form so that they can attach it to your file. Even if you gave biometric for study visa or work visa, they will not consider it for PR. You have to gave separate biometric for your EE. Moreover service canada is not opened, so you to wait untill they immigration ask for it

It takes time usually it takes up to 6 months, but due to Covid-19 it might take longer... they just got to medical pass for those who applied on the 30th of April... It is a slow process so do not worry.
I strongly believe that IRCC has received all of these documents and this is a technical glitch on the display post submission. To be on the safer side, I raised a webform attaching all the documents and screenshots. Received confirmation from IRCC stating that they have received all the documents.
