Do I have to submit my biometrics again?

[Eric23]

Hi

I'm applying for a study permit, and for the visa they require the biometrics. However, I did this in 2018 when I travelled Canada as a visitor. I checked with this website https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/extapp/bioStatusQuery and It doesn't say anything. I wrote the number that I have in my Passport. It's the number which follows the letter FPC. and It doesn't appear. Am I doing something wrong?

 

[k.h.p.]

"FPC" isn't your universal client identifier (UCI). If you're looking on a visa counterfoil in your passport, it will be string of numbers, and numbers only. It may be in the field to the right of the FPC.

Don't enter FPC in the box. Does that help?

Nope It doesn't with that number it says this.

Biometric status

Status	Not applicable
Details	We did not find any biometrics for the information you provided. Please check your information and try again. If you haven't submitted your biometrics, you need to submit them if you plan to apply. Find a biometrics collection point near you.

Did you do the biometrics in your home country, or are you thinking perhaps of the kiosk at the Canadian airport where your photo and fingerprints are taken?

If you are talking about the kiosk at the Canadian airport, that is not biometrics. You'll have to give them separately.

Nope, I did it in New York, not in an Airport. And yes they were biometrics. The UCI number in my passport is not the same that the one that I have in my Express Entry profile either.
Maybe I should put the number that I have in my Express Entry profile, but I didn't take biometrics with that one.

 

[k.h.p.]

You should not have more than one UCI, and you need to find the UCI under which you gave biometrics.

Look at any email communications you got from Canada regarding the application in 2018.

They have my application number but nothing else

 

[k.h.p.]

And in any of your GCKey accounts does that application number appear? Can you link that application number to a GCKey account?

 

[Eric23]

I'm trying to link this application to my account. I couldn't at the first time, so I think that I'm doing something wrong.

Should I select Temporary Residence or Temporary Resident Visa?

Because If I choose Temporary Resident Visa, It doesn't allow me to continue.

After that It says this

Should I choose Temporary Resident Visa or Visitor Record?

My application number start with a
V322xxxxxxx

and I visited Toronto with a visitor visa from January 2019 to May 2019

I checked and might be I know what's the problem but I dont know what to do.

The last time that I came to Canada the officers stamped my visa for 3 months, and I stayed 2 more.
No one told me anything when I left. Can it be the problem? What should I do? Where I can check. I'm applying for a student visa.
