Hi, Are you done with the process of biometrics. if yes, can you please share your experience. I've got my letter today.

Hi Jeevitha,

You'll need to take your BIL along with your original passport to the closest VAC to register your fingerprints and have your photograph clicked. The entire process for me took about 20 minutes. Received an email from CIC confirming receipt of biometrics

Not sure where you're applying from. I submitted my biometrics in Dubai without an appointment although it is recommended to have one

I never got an email confirmation for my biometrics and gave it over a week ago. My online account still has not been updated. What should I do?
