Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada announced that as of June 14, 2023, fresh biometrics are once again required for all Permanent Resident (PR) applicants, even when they have already provided biometrics in a previous application.
The previous (COVID) policy of re-using biometrics provided in Temporary Resident (TR) applications in order to satisfy the biometrics requirement in PR applications has been revoked.
