9 april, 2020 outland applicant,
In gckey biometric already updated, which i gave during visitor visa.
But i again got request letter by ircc to pay biometric fee
There was two links in request letter
One for paying biometric fee and another for sending fee receipt.
I did it.
I want to ask should i wait for another letter to give biometric again.
But if previous record of biometric already updated in gckey then why they ask to pay biometric fee again???

The reason is likely quite simple: the system was not designed to accept previous biometrics (this was changed - temporarily - only during covid). So the system does what it was designed to do - I presume it may require human intervention to override.
Some have had success in advising IRCC that they already have valid biometrics - most have either paid up-front or paid when requested to avoid delays. So I think you did the right thing.
In all cases I've heard of eventually someone at IRCC catches the issue and overrides the system to note valid biometrics / new ones not needed and refunds the money.
Okay
Thank you so much. Its very confusing, so now what i have to do just wait for ircc response because they already have mentioned there after paying biometric fee, we will let you know, in processing application, when you will have to give biometric or may be they will see my previous biometric record which already updated and still valid and refund my fee.
I believe you already made the best move, but I didn't see anywhere about you notifying them about your previous biometrics. Personally waiting on them always is frustrating.
I don't really remember but I believe you can retrieve your past BIL as well as a biometric completion note(email,account,screenshot) of when you did it previously and notify them via a webform and attachments. Just to be in record, at least you would have tried to avoid another process if they attend to it soon.
But if it happens to be that @armoured info about the system is right then please follow up with the promised till otherwise.
Have you advised IRCC that the PA is in Canada? They will do a virtual landing then issue the COPR seems to be the norm.
Yes, i have record of previous biometric, i will send it through web form and make them notify.
