Hello,
I have applied for express entry and submitted my document. I got the letter from cic "Biometric request letter" where I have to submit my biometric details within 30 days if I failed to submit, my application my be refused "if you do not comply, your application may be refuse". Currently, I am leaving in Canada on work permit status. The document has also mentioned "If you are already in Canada, you will have to leave the country to provide your biometrics."
Possible solution :
1. CIC have listed biometric collection center in Toronto, visit there request them to collect my details. Will they accept me and my wife biometric details for PR express entry.
2. Go to India and submit details and come back. which is very costly and difficult.
3. The nearest center is US. I do not have US Visa to go to that location and submit my details. This can be done 1-2 days. But US visa which is blocking to me go.
4. Go to biometric center in Canada and try to update details from webform. (Not sure if it will work)
Also, In that letter, they have mentioned "For Visa Application Centre (VAC), IRCC Office or For US Application Support Center (ASC) use" so I am suspecting they want me to go to the US or India VAS to submit my biometrics. Is that true?
Can we do submit biometric within Canada?
I have read different blogs to find a similar situation but I could not find any useful information as to how can I submit my biometric details to CIC !!
Somebody, please help as I have 28 days left to submit my biometric details to CIC.
