Hi , As i got the fingerprint request recently , i am going towards RCMP accredited service providers to get it done this weekend probably .
Just wanted to process which is bit confusing - I go to the service provider , what in steps happens ? Here is the reference
What happens next:
The agency sends the fingerprint form directly to the RCMP and advises the appropriate
citizenship office that the fingerprints have been forwarded.
Once your fingerprints are received by the RCMP, the results are sent to the citizenship office
and processing of your application continues.
Once your file has been finalized, no copy of your fingerprints is retained by either the
RCMP or Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Further it quotes
IMPORTANT:
For the fingerprint result to be sent to our office (IRCC), you
must authorize IRCC to receive said documents. Clearly state
to the fingerprinting agency that all original fingerprint
results must be sent to the following address:
Citizenship Program (Grants)
Case Processing Centre Sydney
P.O. Box12000
Sydney, NS
B1P 7C2
IMPORTANT – Please advise the RCMP or fingerprinting
agency that the “Contributor Individual Reference Number”
is required. This is your Citizenship application number
(beginning with “C”).
Question - Will the agency while sending the electronic fingerprints will also inform RCMP - that once RCMP provide results post scanning , RCMP should send this to above mentioned address along with Citizenship APP # reference ? if yes how they would do that to RCMP ?
Also how do I authorize results IRCC to receive said documents ?
Bit confusing to me , Hope someone clarifies ?
