Hi! When did you receive the Biometrics Instruction Letter? E-medical first info sheet was created January 14. 2nd info sheet (required additional blood test for dependent son) was completed Jan 22. I submitted full applicatiom and received AOR on 23rd. When should I expect to receive the instruction letter? Thanks!
Hi Msballes16.
My EE online application was also submitted on January 23rd and I still haven't received BIL.
I will update once I receive my Biometrics instructions letter from CiC. Please update the post when you receive BIL. Thanks

I have applied for my sister TRV online on the 27th of February and within 24 hours got the biometrics request, so on the 28. However, I am so anxious because you don't know what's coming next......submitted biometrics on the 29th. I'm so stressed sight....just have to wait with needles in your stomach. What a pain

Hi, I am in Indian passport holder living in USA. I M the primary applicant. My spouse is also an indian passport holder but lives in Canada currently on a work permit. Spouse is listed as accompanying spouse in application.

Today I received a letter requesting biometric information. But there is no mention of my spouse in it . Then I went back to my application and observed that only 1 biometric fee of 85cad is taken when I submitted my express entry application.

Do I need to raise a query to get my spouse's biometrics added?

Hi everyone. I am residing in Canada as a PR and submitted online application for my wife on March 11. Haven’t heard anything since then. It says biometric request letter will be sent within 24 hours, but it’s been 10 days now and I’m still floating in the air. I have seen other threads where everyone received there biometric request letter within 24 hours but they all have applied from India. I’m wondering if it’s only us who applied for visa for someone from Canada are delayed in getting biometric request or it’s all over the globe. Please let us know
