Guys, I have a question hope anyone can answer,, where does usually the biometric result is dispatch from VAC? to the applicant's Visa Office (whos processing the PA's application for PR)?

I enrolled my Biometric in Malaysia and it was dispatch to Singapore for processing - but my VO is Mississuaga..
I called Singapore and asking any update with biometric as it still not uploaded in my account, its been 2weeks since I have my Biometric done,, and they cannot give me answer "according to them" my application MUST be with them..
Did you get your biometric letter in email before you linked your application to GCKey?
 
Thank you for the link.. I tried it and it says "We did not find any biometrics for the information you provided" :( I am really worried coz I do not know if Singapore IRCC is really processing it as per VFS notification email - even if I call them and give my Biometric number - they cannot give me any information..


you need to call them again and confirm every detail from your biometric letter in one case they mismatched UCI number and biometric showing pending so please contact VFS or visit personally if its near by because in biometric letter due time is 30 days :)

Awesome! Medical and file transfer next :)
 
Nope, I linked my application to GCKEY March 27, I received Biometric Instruction letter May 16..
Once you have given your Biometrics you are safe from the 30 day deadline since you did your part they have to update it from their end but for peace of mind you can always call CIC in Canada (not Singapore) and confirm if they have received your bio.

Thank you Sid.. I have talked to VAC Malaysia and according to them - they directly send all application i.e Biometric & Visa to Singapore Office for processing and NOT to the Visa office who is processing the application - which for me is Mississauga, They have also confirmed my details are correct..
Now I am coordinating with Singapore Office and asking why I still do not have Biometric details uploaded in my application. I would understand if my status is not "Completed" because it will really take a while.. but not having Biometric details uploaded in my application is very frustrating.. I can see all applicants have it same day as it was taken.. :(

Thank you Sid.. Godbless.. :)

Thank you Krissh, that is what I am also thinking every time I am being anxious about this Biometric part "I already did my part" LOL, and sometimes if anyone who is responding to any of my queries - it gives me relief the way I am getting some infos - rather than being clueless.. Thank you and God Speed.. :)

I haven't received any mail to indicate that they have started processing the application. The last email i received from cic stated that it's transfered to kvo. I hope we'll hear something soon


When you log in ECAS your line 2 on PA side should change to.. we started processing ... That's your AOR2

BGC can take much longer than 3 months. We went 7 before we heard anything.
