Hi All,
Local VO just sent me a request letter asking for an updated IMM 5669(background declaration) and IMM 5406 (additional family info), which I had submitted in 2020.
It has come to my attention that IRCC has new forms as opposed to the ones I submitted in early 2020. For instance, The IMM 5669 I originally submitted was the 06-2019 version while the newest one is version 05-2021 version. Sames goes to IMM 5406.
Therefore, does anyone knows that should I use the older version (previously submitted) or the newest one?

thanks! my worries are that only parts of my application (the requested ones) will be using new forms while the rest are old forms...
difficult to say, should be 6-9 months, considering current processing time and the target ircc set to meet by the end of the year.
I did a rough calculation in Feb, click the following link for detail. this is for reference only.

My husband is the primary applicant. We both got a request for fingerprints/FBI background, as well as medical, but I'm the only one who got a request for Biometrics. He hasn't lived or worked there before, and he hasn't had them done previously. Thought it was strange that I was the only one to get the bio request.
The fingerprints/FBI check should have been part of your application....unless it had expired and they asked you for it again. Hope they don't ask for ours again! I'm pretty sure biometrics will NEED to be done for anyone entering Canada. You might want to check on that (has he had fingerprinting done in the US for anything else?)
We both submitted fingerprints/FBI check was part of our original application back in March 2020, but they've requested them again. My guess it has expired and they want new ones. We've also worked abroad in the past (before we applied) and I hold dual citizenship with the UK, so maybe that has something to do with them asking for my biometrics and not my husband? I'm not sure who to follow up with. We haven't had much luck finding a direct line for questions. Ironically, I found this link on the IRCC website and it appears most people don't need to give biometrics. Based on the info I put in, neither of us should, but I did get a request, so I'm obviously going to. Makes me feel a little better though about my husband not receiving one. https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/biometrics.asp
Most folks on this forum, from what I've read, had biometrics requested. I think it's just required for the Canadian govt to have your fingerprints and photo on file before you enter the country. So maybe they have it from somewhere else...not sure. But the biometrics are not for background check. According to the site you posted, I don't need to give biometrics either. But they DID request them, so we did them. No idea....maybe it's luck of the draw, LOL.
I wonder if they only requested it because we had already paid for it when we sent the application in??? I know there was an option to pay for it once the application was opened but they claimed it would make everything take longer so we just paid for it with the application. Maybe they wouldn't have requested it had we not paid for it. No idea.
Has anyone who has got a permanent AOR had any communication since that wasn’t biometrics request?
