Hello people,

I applied for a study permit recently, and since I had applied to enter Canada twice (once for a study permit and another time to extend the said permit), I assumed, rather foolishly, that I must have given biometrics previously and answered "yes" to the "Have you given biometrics in the past 10 years" question. But that is not the case!

How do I let CIC know of this mistake? I have looked at the web form, but I do not know the visa office at which my application is being processed -- I am from India and there are three offices. I hope this won't ruin my application.

Thanks!

Update: Issue resolved - I just got a message from CIC asking me to pay the biometrics fee. I contacted them yesterday using the general webform, which may or may not have influenced the message I received today.
