I applied for my express entry application online on February 25. I received my biometrics letter on March 4, and was able to book an appointment at the San Francisco ASC for March 19 (earliest appointment I could find). However, USCIS closed their offices on March 18.

IRCC has provided a 90 day deadline to submit biometrics, instead of the usual 30, but that deadline would end on June 2 for my case. USCIS won't be opening their offices until at least June 4 (from their website). Is anyone in a similar situation to mine and know if we'll be provided an additional extension?

I did raise a webform enquiry but received a canned response repeating the 90 day deadline (did they even read the text in my enquiry?? :().
