I think vfs offices for biometric might be open after 20 nov, because nadir patel already tweeted in it's last twitter account that vfs for biometric would expected to close to the end of november, but it is not fully initiated. As compare to last few months, IRCC had sent direct msg on their twitter account that vfs closed for the complete month. But this time nothing like this will happens till now. So guys I think they will definitely take decision after 20 nov. Other wise they will have normal visa policy for January 2021, it will happens only with biometric

Even if they open up it is only gonna be max of 15 days as Christmas holidays are approaching and in my guess they mostly would start it in an invite mode. So they would sent a letter like they do with passport request. By looking at how those passport request are going it will get delayed for many and will be random mostly. So some luckily would be able to submit within December but most only would be able to submit biometrics next year. By that time classes would be start for Jan intake. So by the looks of it people would get decisions after January considering the backlogs they have for the two prior intakes. All is just a guess.
VFS India is reopening from tomorrow (Nov-20) the locations for biometrics for Family Class Sponsorship and Student Visa as a priority. Good Luck.!
