VACs are becoming more available for the individuals who would like to come to Canada as permanent residents, foreign employees, graduates and tourists.
Several Visa Application Centers (VACs) around the world have re-opened in recent weeks to offer services to those seeking to come to Canada.
VACs allow individuals to apply their bio metrics in the form of the criteria outlined by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
The applicants submit their fingerprints, photos and pay a fee as part of the method of obtaining bio metrics. Canada is collecting biometrics to make flying into the country easier and safer.
The VACs have been closed as part of corona virus containment measures since March.
Below is the list of currently opened Visa Application Centers (VACs). The list is being constantly updated. VAC's in India have not been opened yet.
