Hey Guys, I am from India

Basic question: As VAC's are not taking biometrics requests and are giving priority to students / spousal visas, Did someone get an appointment for biometrics?

If biometrics are delayed, For how long does CIC extends the date?

Appreciate your response.....

Thank you for your response @legalfalcon .

I withdrew my application 5 days after AOR due to inconsistencies in my work reference letter (AOR: 25 November, withdrawal letter: 30 November).

Withdrawal letter got acknowledged since 17th December saying it has been forwarded to responsible office for final decision.

Got a new ITA subsequently and submitted a new eAPR on 10th December.

However, yesterday I got an update on my profile saying my processing is 24% in progress. It makes me wonder why they would not give a final decision but continue processing my application. I guess they do not want to make a full refund .
It does take time to close the application. If you have already requested IRCC to withdraw your application, you can continue with the new one and wait for the refund to be issued.

"Extension of biometrics deadline for permanent residence applicants who have not given biometrics within the last 10 years
If the biometrics collection site closest to you is closed, we’ll automatically extend your deadline to give your biometrics.
CIC is aware of COVID disruptions and automatically extend the date for biometrics."

You will find all the details here : https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/coronavirus-covid19/biometrics.html

My AOR is Nov 27th, BIL was December 15th.

I have already submitted the financial statements including statements showing average balance for the last 3 months when submitting the application.
I did not show 6 months because I didn't have sufficient balance spread across 6 months.

Will they ask for a 6-month average balance statement after they have sent me the BIL? Is there any possibility?
Statement of Accounts showing necessary funds is fine. Statements should be an average of 6 months. FD holding statement works as long as it's holding the same since 6 months. 3 Months does not work. Talk to a counselor once.

Hi all. My AOR is 20th Nov, MEP 29th Dec. I want to now if my eligibility has started/passed and also my VO. What would be the ideal time to raise a webform or call IRCC? I'm thinking at the end of January.

I received a "We are reviewing the results of your medical exam" along with BIL. The only issue with my medicals was an unusually high BP (128/94). The doctor said as long as creatinine level was normal, it should be alright. But now that I haven't received MEP, what should I do next?

AOR : 24 Nov
BIL : 8 Jan (booked for 21st)
