Your presence will prove that you are the same person as in the picture you submitted. No need to carry photographs.

Hi, I haven't got that far in the process yet so I can't speak from personal experience, but I have seen notes from others on the spreadsheet elsewhere previously who say they recommend taking:
a) Letter for Invitation of Test
b) Passports (Current and Expired)
c) PR Card
d) Landing Document (if you have one)
e) Driving License and Health Card
f) If you submitted copies of IELTS, take the original copy
g) If there was a name change, take the original
h) recommend you check all stamps in your passport to match your entry and exit (just in case they ask).

Keep me posted when you get next update... Here is my story:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/finger-print-information-not-on-file-even-after-4-months.607606/


Out of curiosity I called CIC today and found that they don't have information on my Finger Prints, that I completed them... on file yet and CIC Agent suggested to send a copy of receipt to Vancouver office marking it as FYI.

Is this normal for Citizenship applicant from Vancouver/Surrey BC area? Looking at Vancouver Area applications timeline in various forums they are usually taking much longer time overall... Is Vancouver office a bottleneck for us ?

I deleted my most recent comment as I got updates today.

I called CIC because today is 30 days from the day of the FPs letter. The agent got back to me that they recived it on Jan 18th though I had done them on Jan the 4th and it was sent electronically.

Will keep you posted for further updates

I can't speak from personal experience, but others may be able to assist you better. My question to you would be that even with the mistake do you still have enough days physical presence to qualify?

Guys needs your help.

I received a letter by mail from IRCC requesting my finger prints which I did through 3rd party commissionaires office on 21.nov.2018. But on 19. JAN. 2019 I got an email saying that they don't have my FP and it's a final request. So I call IRCC and she suggested me to send receipt via Webform and she also sent me the link. Meanwhile I called RCMP to find out about my FP result which they said that its been forwarded on 27.Nov.2018 to IRCC. But RCMP said that I need to do it again but IRCC said just send us the receipt.

Please advise and if anybody else has the same problem and what did he do?

Fingerprints are an issue, especially in Vancouver. I got request for fingerprints on Dec 5th. Went to Vancouver Police and they refused to acknowledge CIC request and said that they will not send it to them directly and will not add their info to the file. Did the fingerprints, got the original letter from RCMP on December 14th in Mail. Took it to the CIC office in downtown Vancouver on December 17th in person and handed it to them. They refused to give me a receipt. No updates in my file so far.

Yes

In your shoes, I would just be prepared to answer any questions they may ask about dates at the interview post test, but the fact you have been called for the test would in my view make me believe all will be OK. You say you have enough days, so you qualify regardless. Others on the forum may be able to add their thoughts.

For those who got FPs request, please advice:

I got a request on Dec 24th for FPs, I had done them on Jan the 4th and provided the police officer with the address in Vancouver were the FPs need to be submitted. Called CIC to check for an updates last Friday, they told me nothing was updated and still they didn't receive the FPs!! They told me to wait until it it is 30 days from the Day of the letter and call them again for updates!

When I got my FPs taken back in Dec 13, they advised to wait two to three weeks until they reach the Vancouver office (as RCMP uses regular mail). I waited a month and I got the test invitation. I didn't have to call CIC. I'm a believer that if we keep calling, we keep pulling them from been more proactive with our applications. Patient and good luck!
