No. They wont proceed his application till he will give his biometrics. Even though if the VFS will be open and he does his biometrics it will take longer time as the application submited from Feb, March, April, May and june are still waiting for the result. My application submited to CIC on 10th April and still no update.

how can you book tickets when you know all the vfs centres are closed. you guys need to know these are not normal times. no travel in 2020. applications are processed but at a very slow speed due to shortage of staff and no application will be processed without biometrics.
Tickets where booked in march.. she just didn't apply for visa.. thought to do today or tomorrow. Then later it was too late as covid has shown what it is.. we been waiting for things will settle down. But its July. Its still as worst it was in India.

Unfortunate that she didn’t apply earlier. Even with covid 1 month may have not been enough time. Many waited longer before covid. Hopefully tickets are refundable or might get cancelled on there own.

My parents have "Visitor Visa". They arrived in Canada on Sept 18, 2019. In January 2020, we applied online to extend their stay up to Sept 17, 2020. They underwent medical exams on Jun 18, 2020 as required on the application (not upfront), & luckily, they passed the medicals. Their application for extension was eventually approved.
Question: If we again apply online to extend their stay, will they be required to do another set of medical exams? I know medical exams are valid for 1 year, but I just want to ask if anyone here had a similar application.

Impossible to say. If it is still during the 1 year they won’t be asked.

Hi there,
Have you submitted your application for a parent who reside in Iran? If yes, we are in the same boat as I also applied on June 31st & waiting for the result. Due to your message, it seems to be a lengthy process & at least four more months to wait, right?
