Hello Everyone, I hope this timeline will help anyone who is in the process to apply for their parent's visitor visa.
October 3rd, 2022 - Applied for Visitor visa for dad(primary applicant) and mom (Secondary applicant)
October 3rd, 2022 - Biometric Request Mumbai
October 4th, 2022 - Appointment booked.
October 7th, 2022 - Biometric did.
October 7th, 2022 - Afternoon mom's application status changed to "biometric completed" | Dad's application status was still "Biometric required"
October 10th, 2022 - I submitted a technical webform for this issue.
October 21st, 2022 - Night, Received original passport request.

P.S: If you are in the stage of biometrics not updating I will suggest raising a web form. As the applicant's country is India which already has many backlogs, this was expected.
//Background
Dad is the Primary applicant working internationally. Been traveling to India every year.
Mom is the Secondary applicant working as a housewife.

//Documents
I gave an invitation letter(I traveled in Sept 2020 and I missed my parents and dad was not in India when I left)
Dad wrote a statement of purpose.
I gave convocation details and a college confirmation letter.
P.S Fanshawe college did not give me an invitation letter from their side
Attached all visas, stamps, occupation letters bank details, and funds.
I did not show a significant amount of funds tho. | 10L in INR and 2K in CAD
I did not show any booked flights or hotel bookings. mentioned they gonna stay with me.

I hope it helps. :)

My university also did not provide an invitation letter for the convocation. Instead, I saved a screenshot of the university's convocation webpage and submitted that as proof. You may do the same, in case it helps. :)
