Whoever did biometric in last ten years their file is automatically updated and yes they will not get the phone call, also receiving their refund automatically

Thanks. Could not see my profile there. So I searched a bit and found a link which tells you if you Biometrics are still valid.

Unfortunately, the latter for me. Apparently, I never submitted Biometrics during my WP application.

Hi, sorry to hear that. Hopefully, Service Canada in Ontario will start calls soon.

So visitor visa is not included ??

Visitor, Study, Work - if you ever have done Biometrics for Immigration purposes (Canada), then you are good. It will count - Done.
Don't expect the system to tell you - "You don't have to give your Biometrics" or "We Received Your Biometrics". For the IRCC system to do that, I guess they have to shut down the system for some time and smart IT-guys/girls should write new codes with new rules. I don't think they will do that, because it's not a permanent solution. Only until the backlog is cleared or Covid-19 passes.
If you have done your Biometrics for Canada for any reason (Study, Work, Visit) - Congratulate you

The office that working my file message me directly asking me to do Biometrics in order for them to move forward to my application. I don't know what to do now since they said we are exempted

Make sure they have your biometrics file on their system to double make sure. Please let us know!

That is weird. Mine i saw they incorporated the previous biometrics information (number, date of issue, date of expire) in my account. Yeah, i think u should send them a LoE with ur previous biometrics

 

[SpiritualWonderBoy]

They sent me two emails today saying that they need my biometrics and then the second email is my second BIL
