I sent mailed it here
High Commission of Canada,
Migration Section
42 Independence Avenue Arko Adjei Interchange Accra, Ghana.

And softcopies to : accra.immigration@international.gc.ca.

All the best
Good morning, my oversea spouse just sent her documents to Accra VO today through DHL and she did her biometrics today. Who will send her biometrics? Is it the visa office or she needs to do the sending because she said they gave her a slip and said she should send it when they request for her passport. I don't understand. Somebody who have done this before should please let me know so that I will know what to do. Thanks

up to my knowledge they don't ask for wedding pictures when you add a spouse to your refugee pr application, however, they ask for pics and proof of conversations when you apply to sponsor a spouse. nevertheless, it is up to you since they didn't ask you for any proof as the marriage certificate should be enough.

She doesn’t need to do anything. They will send it by themselves.

I have not been able to link my oversea dependent spouse to MyCIC account and her biometrics did not come through the account. It rather went directly to her email. For easy access, is it IRCC that will update it by themselves or I should open a separate account for her with her UCI number that was sent along her biometrics letter? Please I need response from those who have gone through.

Only the principal applicant’s portion of an In-Canada Protected Persons and Convention Refugees permanent residence application can be linked to an online account. Since you are a dependent on this application, you will not have the option to link your application to an online account.

Instead, to view the status of your application online, you may use the e-Client Application Status (e-CAS) tool. If it becomes possible for dependents to link their own part of the application to an online account, the information will be made available on our website.

We hope the information provided is helpful in assisting you with your enquiry.

We would also like to suggest the following online services that might be helpful to you with any immigration, refugee and/or citizenship future requests:

Hi everyone.
I'm an August 2020 applicant. Yesterdy I received an email which indicate me to pay biometric fee in an one-month deadline which is 85$. At first I thought they have made mistake to request my fingerprint again. Because i did it in 2018 before coming to Canada. After talking to an immigration consultant, she said this emil refers to my overseas partner. Therefore we made the payment and recevied the confirmation of payment in my email address.
Now I have a question base on your prior experience, how many times dose it take for my partner to provide his biometric?
In my ECAS they just started proccesig of my application on June 27, 2021 and received my medical exam.

You are right. I sent my documents by e-mail in December. Total silence from IRCC. Then in April, I sent the same documents by DHL and they acknowledged receipt and put me on April queue. I have lost 4 months wait time just like that.
