Hi there,
I am a PR holder and want to sponsor my spouse who lives outside of Canada. My spouse has given her biometric recently for a visitor visa application. My question is that after I apply for the spouse sponsorship, will she need to give her biometric again? I found some contradictional information on IRCC website. On one side it says spouse needs to give her biometric even if she gave it before for a temporary resident visa. On the other hand it says the biometric is valid for 10 years.
I would be grateful if someone can help me.
Thanks in advance!

Your spouse will need to give Biometric as part of the PR spouse application.
