HI there

My parents (mom and dad) are currently in Iran

They want to visit me and my sisters in Toronto

They are planning to stay less than 6 months

Can I apply for them online?

They both need "biometrics", which they are supposed to get from Albania.

Do I apply for their visa online first and then send in the biometrics?

Or should they give me their biometrics first, before I apply for their visa online?

Any guidance would be much appreciated

Thanks

After you apply online, CIC will request a BIL (biometric information letter).
You will have instructions what to do next in that letter as well.
