⚠ For the 'Mother' from March 03, 2025 onwards: The biometric information has been updated in the 'Applicant information' section such as Biometrics number, Date of biometrics enrolment, and, Expiry date. However, the detailed application status under 'Biometrics' still shows: "We need your fingerprints to process your application."... Same reflects in the IRCC Application Status Tracker (https://ircc-tracker-suivi.apps.cic.gc.ca/en) for biometrics status as "In progress".
For the 'Father' from March 03, 2025 onwards: The biometric information has been updated in 'Applicant information' section and 'Applicant status' section shows: "Latest update: Biometrics - March 3, 2025: Completed." Also, the detailed application status under 'Biometrics' shows: "March 3, 2025 Completed." which also reflects likewise in the IRCC Application Status Tracker for biometrics status as "Completed".
> On March 18, 2025: After 2 weeks (15 days) of waiting and unchanged status of this Application, I decided to raise this concern (Mother's Biometric Status Not Updated in Super Visa Application) and advised the authority with a letter and screenshot via IRCC Web Form: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/contact-ircc/web-form.html
