The rules are on their website. Look under the item "Travel exemptions and restrictions for international students"

Application got approved without biometrics
Just wanted to share with you my update
My wife applied for PGWP on June 10th with an open work permit for me and 2 study permits for our kids. Me and my wife applications got approved on 28th of July but our kids applied without biometrics and their application was on hold I called cic client center and they confirmed that the kids application will remain on hold unless we respond to the biometric letter by raising a web form that we are unable to submit the biometrics due to COVID-19 and the closure of all service canada offices . So I have raised a web form then 3 days later my kids study permit application were approved.

I find it interesting that you had to respond to the biometrics letter. The website stated that applicants dont need to send webform inquiry about it and we just need to wait. Was there a specific situation why you had to respond to the biomeritics?
