RCMP fingerprints timelines

Anybody took fingerprints abroad (thru an agency like Gambit ID)?
Did you send photos along with the documents?
IRCC said they did not receive photos (nowhere did they require it, but apparently the CRMP does take it if you get your fingerprints with them) and the agency told me, "well, they don't require photos and it is usually ok".

What documents did you need to take with you to the FP Office? Would a DL and Health Card be enough? I ask because my passport is expired and my PR Card will be expiring soon too
Not 100% sure but I think DL and Health Card should work as they are both government issued with signatures.
I never had to give my FPs. My friend took his PR card, COPR document, health card, DL, and the letter sent by IRCC.

Generally yes, it is the final step prior to the exam. However, if warranted, you may still receive an RQ.
If your application is straight-forward i.e., no excessive travelling, no criminal history, no frequent address changes etc. then you likely have nothing to worry about.

I have an outstanding charge(domestic, summary offence) and received FP request on March 8. I emailed the Vancouver office and was informed to proceed with having my FP done. I have requested the Crown to withdraw my charge but our meeting is on March 29 and my next court date is in late April. Should I do the FP now or wait till my charge is withdrawn? I have 90 days to submit the FP. I know this is more like a question to the immigration lawyer but any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

It been 2 weeks since I submitted my FP by an agency, but still no updates for test. Do I need to contact IRCC or RCMP in order to confirm/ check if IRCC received FP?
Also what is the best way contact IRCC in this situation?
Thanks

Interesting! I am currently outside Canada, and have received a request for FPs. Should I ask the accredited agency to take a photo? Or the fingerprinting services?
Frankly, I would say that if the agency does not require your photo, do not do business with them because they may not know what they are doing... or a taking a risk all on you.
Tests are very slow right now, it seems. You can always ask or webform them requesting confirmation that they received the FP. Actually, it is good if you do it... to be on the safe side.
