For PR application you will have to submit new biometrics even if you have a valid old one. So, please make the payment and give biometrics ASAPI'm CEC, AOR Oct 11.
No updates since then, besides asking to pay again for biometry although I have a valid 1-year old biometry.
Paid on Dec 08, sent a receipt via IRCC webform, got no response, even automated.
Called agent today, they told that they don't see my receipt.
Re-sent the receipt today, still no automated response.
Previously I got an automated response in 1 day max.
Anyone experiences the same?
