Ielts and Biometrics

[annabusdra]

Hi all,

I am preparing my Citizenship application to submit next month.
I have 2 questions regarding the missing documents:

- For language proof, I have a IELTS General Training from 2017 (well above the required score). Is it still accepted as a proof despite it being over 2 years old?
- When I submitted the PR application, I didn't need to provide biometrics. I suppose now it will be needed. Is there any way I can submit them in advance without them asking at a later date? I am planning to leave Canada as soon as my application is received.

Cheers!

Yes

No. Fingerprints might be asked at a later point in time and you can only get them done once you receive a Finterprints request from IRCC.
