It seems nobody on the November 2016 feed went through an address change (I didn't)... Try looking at other feeds, there are some months with much more people talking, you might have better luck.

I changed my address ealry December... It didnt change until now

If you receive a fingerprint request, there will be a list of places that do it in your area - it's different from the list you can find at the CIC website. What I did was call the one closest to my work and ask questions, since I didn't had the option to do it at the RCMP. The place in which I had my fingerprints done did it all electronically - the fingerprints went from there to the RCMP, which in turn send them to the CIC, all electronically. I left with only a receipt.

Yes, I got FP request by mail. need to complete in 30 days. It says IRCC act 21 and 22 requires the FP for further processing. Is this standard letter ?

Yes, Tim50, it is standard. My advice is get it done asap, don't think too much about it. Look at the list that comes with the letter, chose a provider, get it done. I did mine the day after the letter arrived, minimum to no impact on my process.

If you look through the forum, you'll find several people with several theories on why they request fingerprints. I don't think there's one single reason, each case is different. The same goes for residence questionnaire. It's useless to try to understand the innards of the process without input from an official source - which none of us have. Whatever it is they are doing in the IRCC, it seems to be working, because processes have been getting faster - at least according to the data on the spreadsheets.

Yes, I am planing to complete today at Police HQ. Hope they will send electronic FP to RCMP to CIC at BC Van office.
