Biometrics extension for temporary and permanent residence applicants 临时居住或永久居民申请指纹采集延期

Some biometrics collection sites are still closed. These sites include 一些指纹采集点依旧关闭,这些采集点包括:

  • visa application centres (VACs) 签证中心
  • United States (US) application support centers (ASCs) 美国境内申请支持中心
  • Service Canada offices 加拿大服务处办公室

If the site closest to you is closed, we’ll automatically extend your deadline to give your biometrics. 如果距离你较近的指纹采集点依旧关闭,我们将自动延期指纹采集截止日期

You don’t have to give your biometrics until the sites reopen. This applies to you, even if your biometrics instruction letter (BIL) says you have 30 or 90 days. 在这些采集点重新开放之前,你无需提供指纹采集。即使你的指纹采集信已超过 30或90 天

You don’t have to contact us for this extension, and you don’t need a new BIL to make another appointment when sites reopen. Bring your original BIL to your new appointment to show proof of payment. 你无需为延期与我们取得联系,也无需在采集点重新开放后提供新的指纹采集信;只需在重新预约时携带原指纹采集信即可

Your application won’t be refused or closed if you can’t give your biometrics due to COVID-19 closures. 你的申请不会因为无法提供指纹采集而被拒签

When biometrics collection sites open again 当指纹采集点重新开放

When biometrics collection sites are open again, you can give you biometrics, even if you can’t travel to Canada yet. You just need to pay the biometric fee (CAN$85). Once you give your biometrics, the biometric fee is non-refundable. 指纹采集点重新开放后,即使你无法来加拿大,在缴纳 $85 加币申请费后也可以提供指纹采集。该费用不可退还

If you apply for temporary residence, your biometrics 在你递交临时居民申请时,你的指纹采集

  • are valid for 10 years 十年有效
  • can be used for another visitor visa, study permit or work permit application 可被用于其他如访问签、学习许可、工作签证的申请
