PR Renewal - Fees

[mr.gk]

Hello Folk,

I'm confused about the required fees. it's clear that it's only $50 but below guide is confusing me:

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-5445-applying-permanent-resident-card-card-first-application-replacement-renewal-change-gender-identifier.html#5445E6

it's referring to biometric fees. Is it required for PR renewal ??!!

Thanks

Have you given biometrics in the past ?

Biometrics

Most PR card applicants do not need to give biometrics.


However, you’ll need to give your biometrics and pay the biometrics fee if

• you were less than 14 years old when we received your application for permanent residence and you applied for permanent residence on or after July 31, 2018, AND
• you’re now older than 14 years old and are applying for a new permanent resident card, a replacement or a renewal

Once you’ve paid the application and biometrics fees, you’ll get a biometric instructions letter (BIL) which will direct you to a list of biometric collection service points you may choose from. You must bring the BIL with you to the biometric collection service point. You can’t give your biometrics without this letter.


We encourage you to give your biometrics as soon as possible after you get the BIL. We’ll start processing your application after we get your biometrics.

It seems no need as I was above 30 when I got my first PR card.
Thank you guys
