Hi, @robertp I need an expert advice on it.

I have applied for my parents and my brother under PGP2019. I just received the biometric request for all 3 applicants.

I have 2 questions:

1. My brother is already in Canada having a study permit. His Biometrics were already done(last year and are valid until 2029) when he got his study permit, and in CIC account under dependents - it still shows his biometrics number and expiry date. Regardless, we still received a letter requesting for his biometrics

Should he still go to a VAC to get Biometrics done again ?

2. Is there anything we need to do from our end, after my parents go to VAC to give there biometrics?

Thanks,
Harman.
Should he still go to a VAC to get Biometrics done again ? Yes (at service Canada in Canada)
2. Is there anything we need to do from our end, after my parents go to VAC to give there biometrics? No

I had the same situation.
yes, your brother needs to do biometric. he can do it in canada. pretty much all cities have centers to do bio.
48 h after bio is done, it shows on system that it is completed. in canada, your brother will get the letter back with a barcode at the bottom.
