VFS Canada Biometric Appointment

A VFS Canada Biometric Appointment is an appointment with the Visa Application Centre (VAC) to have your fingerprints and photograph (biometrics) taken as part of your application for a temporary resident visa, study or work permit, or permanent residence.

Biometrics are used to verify your identity when you apply for a visa, study or work permit, or permanent residence. They are also used to help prevent identity fraud. The biometrics appointments are quick and easy – they usually take less than 15 minutes.

What to expect during your biometric appointment.

At your VFS Canada Biometric Appointment, you will be asked to provide your fingerprints and a digital photo. The process is quick and easy, and takes just a few minutes.

Before you arrive, make sure you have all the required documents with you, as well as any fees that may be required. Once you are at the appointment, a trained officer will collect your biometrics according to the standard procedures.

After your biometrics have been collected, you will be given a receipt confirming that the process is complete. You should keep this receipt with your other important immigration documents.

The importance of giving accurate information

Giving accurate information is important for several reasons. First, if the information is not accurate, it may lead to delays in processing the individual’s application. Second, inaccurate information may also lead to a denial of the application.

Finally, providing false or misleading information on an immigration application is grounds for criminal prosecution in Canada.

Individuals who submit their applications with inaccurate information are not only slowing down the process for themselves, but also for others who are waiting for their own applications to be processed.

Furthermore, if an individual’s application is denied because of inaccurate information, they will have to start the entire process over again from the beginning.

It is therefore in everyone’s best interest to make sure that all information provided on a VFS Canada Biometric Appointment form is accurate and up-to-date.

How to prepare for your biometric appointment

It is important to be prepared for your VFS Canada biometric appointment so that the process goes smoothly. Here are a few tips to help you prepare:

1. Make sure you have all of the required documents with you. This includes your passport, application form, and any other documents that may be requested.

2. Be on time for your appointment. Arriving late may result in you having to reschedule.

3. Follow the instructions given by the staff during the biometric process. This includes providing your fingerprints and having your photo taken.

4. After your biometric appointment is complete, double check that you have received a confirmation receipt indicating that your biometrics were successfully submitted.

What happens if you cannot attend your appointment?

If you cannot attend your VFS Canada Biometric Appointment, you must inform the Visa Application Centre (VAC) as soon as possible. You can do this by calling the VAC or by email. If you do not inform the VAC, your application may be delayed.

If you need to reschedule your appointment, you can do so through the VAC website. You will need to login to your account and select the ‘reschedule’ option. Please note that there is a fee for this service.

If you are unable to attend your appointment and do not wish to reschedule, you can send a representative in your place. The representative must bring with them a signed letter from you authorizing them to attend the appointment on your behalf, as well as a copy of your valid photo ID.
