I heard from WhatsApp group people who don't do biometrics ( because VAC is closed ) got DM and received COPR as well. Any idea guys?
Perhaps they had a prior application (for TRV, etc) with biometrics? I know IRCC is allowing biometrics submitted within 10 years to be reused for other applications due to COVID.

If that's the case then I am truly happy for them. But I doubt that would be the case as biometrics is mandatory requirement for coming to Canada. Also, there is no information regarding this from IRCC or VFS. By any chance did thier COPR mentioned they can not enter Canada until they submit biometrics from their country? Can you please clarify?

They said biometrics will be taken at the time of arrival at the airport. I am not sure how much this info is correct. That's why I posted here to get more information.

I just got bio-metric request from IRCC by email. X was removed infront of the application number. However, I can't link my application online.
Try UCI and Family name. It may take some time to link it online.

If they are saying it then that might be the case for them. Can't really comment on it as I have not heard of it yet nor my spouse (who has already gotten pre-arrival with biometrics pending) have received DM, PPR or COPR.
Let's wait and watch if this trend can be seen with other applications.
Good luck!

Hello Raju,

Thanks for the response.
Is it mentioned anywhere in CIC about the 3 months validity for the signatures?
Im confused bcoz, the application was submitted in march and probably processed in end of august, which is almost 6 months.

So how do they consider the application, especially when somebody wants to resubmit the package instead of a new one?
If your app was returned and you re-submit it they consider it to be the same as a new app. I suggest you redo the paperwork and check to see if there are updated versions of forms which you should use. I don't know about the validity of signatures but you don't want it to be returned again. Check the validity of police clearances etc to make sure they are still valid as well.
