Please help! No biometrics center in the country where I am residing..

[AsmaRafiq]

I am a Pakistani living in Sweden, I got admission in master studies in Canada and have applied for visa. I have to submit my biometrics and picture in 30 days. But there is NO biometric center for Canada in Sweden! There is a Canadian embassy here but there dont deal with immigration/visa processes. The closest biometric center is in London and Germany. But I cant travel to Germany or London because of my work and studies in Sweden. What should I do in this case???? This is a rule that has been implemented recently so there must be some sort of exception in this regard. Please HELP!!! I NEED SUGGESTIONS!

No option for you. You need to travel to London or Germany for Biometrics. Biometrics can't be waived off.

1. You will have to find the closet VAC or Canadian consulate that does them (Vienna, Warsaw, Tel Aviv, Havana ) see: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/biometrics.asp
