Biometrics if I have already submitted one for my PGWP already?

[JapaneseInMB]

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if I should be expecting to get receive a call from Service Canada if I have already done my biometrics last year when I applied for PGWP at the border?
I know that there is now a new policy that allows to exempt anyone who has submitted biometrics in the last 10 years, but I was wondering whether biometrics submitted for PWGP is also applicable.

Thanks!

Yes, they are applicable.

Yes, they are applicable.

In that case, do I just ignore the current BIL? It expires this week.

Yes, you can ignore it.
Even if you were not exempted, due to covid they are disregarding expiry date of the BIL. If you needed biometrics you would receive a call at some point.

My biometrics (January 2020) were for a TRV after getting my PGWP.
I have Jun 29 AOR, and they were reflected as completed in my profile on Oct 21.
