They didn’t take my photo when I gave my biometrics in Canada. Will my application still be processed?
Yes. If Service Canada staff didn’t take your photo due to COVID-19-related public health measures,
- we’ll still process your current permanent residence application and
- you won’t need to come back to give your photo for your current application
