No, My AOR is April 16, 2020 and I wasn't exempt, my country of residence is India. I received my Biometrics Instruction Letter on June 24, 2020.Were you exempt from giving biometrics?
Permanent residence to temporary residence
- Permanent residence applicants are required to enrol their biometrics in support of every application (even if the applicant has valid biometrics enrolled under the temporary resident stream). When foreign nationals have provided their biometrics in support of a permanent residence application, asylum claim or overseas refugee resettlement application, as long as the application or claim is still open, they are not required to provide new biometrics in support of a
- TRV
- work or study permit
- TRP application
- temporary residence extension
- Permanent residents who lose their status, due to residency requirements or voluntary renouncement of their permanent resident status, revert back to being a foreign national and, therefore, are required to provide their biometrics in support of any new applications.
But, at that time VACs in my country were closed, I was able to give biometrics on March 5, 2021 which were updated in my profile the same day.
In GCMS notes Info Sharing updated date is June 24, 2020.
For the record, I have a visitor visa for USA, do you think it has anything to do with that?
