One of the most frequently asked questions by immigration applicants is, “How long does Canada PR take after biometrics?” Understanding the Canada PR Processing Time After Biometrics is crucial to managing expectations and planning the next steps of your journey. At GO GLOBAL IMMIGRATION SERVICES, we’re here to break it down clearly and guide you through every stage of the Canada PR process.
What Happens After You Give Biometrics?
Biometrics (fingerprints and a photograph) are mandatory in the Canada PR process. Once you complete this step, your application moves into the final processing phase with Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Here’s what typically happens next:
Background Checks Begin
Medical Examination Review
Eligibility Assessment
Final Decision
Passport Request (PPR) & Confirmation of PR
Average Processing Time After Biometrics
While timelines can vary based on the program you've applied under (e.g., Express Entry, PNP, Spousal Sponsorship, etc.), here are some general estimates:
Express Entry (FSW/CEC): 2 to 6 months after biometrics
Provincial Nominee Program (PNP): 6 to 9 months
Family Sponsorship: 8 to 12 months
Other Streams: Can vary based on case complexity and visa office
Note: These are average timeframes. Delays may occur due to security checks, incomplete documentation, or high application volumes.
