I have doubt regarding the new update on student visa(2 Stage approval) ,they said that this process is available for students starting a program in this fall semester.

So what about the if we are applying for Jan intake 2021,due this current situation the VFS is not open for Bio-metrics,so can we process our study permit application without Bio-metrics or else we need to wait for VFS to open.

Expert Please comment.

Not to worry they have also assured that fall intake students will also get there biometrics done before coming to Canada... jan intake are all safe so nothing to worry you will complete your application normally like it used to be as many VFS are opening
