Visitor Visa (New Portal) : Principal Applicant only received Biometric letter, no letter received for member?

[Neohere]

Hi Everyone,
My father(principal applicant) received Biometrics letter same day on application submission and now he has a 30 day deadline before it expires. However, my mother, who also applied along with him (as a member) did not receive. Is this normal? How long does it take ? I had hoped to get both my parents booked together for VAC appointment, however I am worried if it takes too long and nears expiry of my father's letter.

HI. I am facing the same issue. Did you receive biometric request for your mother? If so can you please share the timeline. Thank You.

Sometimes, it will be autogenerated the very next day or even the same day. If it is not it can be a month or less apart from other applicants. It is nothing to worry.

Are you sure it is autogenerated? I do not think so. I got after three days.
