This refers to the mail that IRCC sent you as an acknowledgement of receiving your citizenship application and has the link to the study guide "Discover Canada" for you to prepare for the citizenship test as and when it happens.

Thanks! I didn't realize it was referring to that email, thought it meant they'd mailed something to me!

I applied from Hamilton, sent it to the office in NS. I mailed it to them in Dec 2019

thanks for the info, i guess also no test invite yet ? if you got FP request actually is good news, means they start working on applications that waiting testing, not only the one who did the test .

I also got an email for fingerprint today. I am in Toronto and email was from Vancouver office. This is fine and already mentioned in the email. You can just go to any reputed (accredited list has been phased out since few years) Electronic Fingerprinting services company in Brampton. Take the documents mentioned in email with you when you go. You can just tell them you need to do digital fingerprinting for Citizenship application. I am sure it's normal for most of these companies.

P.S. I am going today for the same.

Just curious. Do you need to send the printed fingerprints to the address given?

Hi,

I got FP request today. Application was delivered on Dec 19th, AOR March 2nd.

Generally, RCMP sends report directly to CIC. Here are the details from email.

"If the RCMP sends the fingerprint results directly to you, forward them to this office as soon as possible so that we can resume processing your application."

"The agency sends the fingerprint form directly to the RCMP and advises the appropriate citizenship office that the fingerprints have been forwarded."

"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:"
<IRCC Vancouver>
"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”)."

Hey I just got gcms notes today. It says my file location: exam- awaiting clearances. Does anyone know what this means?

Good to see FP requests coming in. May be we are closer to tests as well.

 

[issteven]

why people got FP? because they came from dangerous countries?

Nope.
Many times the names are similar/match with person having some history.
So this request is more from an identification and security check perspective and not to classify based on where an applicant comes from.
