Never knew that we have to give FP for the citizenship application. Got PR in 2018 and at that time there was no FP requirement. I know that recently they are collecting FP for all the applications and it's valid for 10 years.
Not necessarily as fingerprinting (for background verification) is not required of every applicants.

Also, you are confusing biometrics and RCMP fingerprinting. The former is required for identity validation and is stored by the government of Canada for 10 years while the latter is required for criminal background check verification and valid for one time use only. That is why some selected applicants have to do RCMP fingerprinting multiple times because IRCC needs to confirm their criminal record hasn't changed since they last requested for their FP (usually applicants whose background check has been more than a year ago).

You do not need to inform IRCC about travelling after you submit your citizenship application.
That's not true. Stop misleading people.
