How to submit Fingerprints for citizenship processing

[demonpreet]

Hi!
I received a fingerprint submission request for my citizenship application. (Application submitted June, AOR received September)

My question is, I live in the US, so I will be visiting Ottawa just for a week to submit my citizenship.

So before I visit Ottawa, should I make any appointment for fingerprint submission, or can I just walk in?

And what all places can I submit my fingerprints?

I believe you can take your fingerprints outside Canada. Found this

I know I can. But I have to go to Ottawa nevertheless. So why not give it from Ottawa itself.

In that case, you need to contact the accredited company if they accept walk-ins or need appointment. Not all companies are the same.

Do you know where can I find the list of accredited companies?

You can request a list from RCMP. I would google it or ask Ottawa applicants who did fingerprints.

I sent an email 8 days ago, and never heard back anything.

Ask here. Someone might be able to help you find an accredited company in Ottawa before RCMP replies to you
