I am in same position with you.
Application : Dec/2021
Preapproval : Nov/2023
Biometrics : Feb/2024
Wife biometrics : March/2025 (they called her 13 months later than me(I do not know why we filed both in dec/2021 !), she paid 6k duc during biometrics - new system)
I do not think we need to do bio again. We will just wait until Lisbon office finishes 2023 spring / summer biometrics. Then they will notify us. I hope.
Its really a nightmare that we will get our cards 5 years later than our first application (2021->2026). I hope I can get my card before passing away. By the way for similar date Lisbon biometrics (like autumn 2023, winter 2024) we can make a watsapp group to update ourselves.
