    Hello, I am wondering why would the passport office call applicants to verify address? It is already mentioned on the application. Can you please clarify? Thanks in advance.

    I actually tried to take your advice and do this last month. I asked the fingerprinting agency if they could request RCMP to send a copy of the results to my home address and they declined saying fingerprints could only be sent to the address on the IRCC letter, hence the importance of the...

    Wait for the request, you cannot do it before as you will need the letter when you go to fingerprints agency. I surely hope you are one of the few lucky ones and you won't get that 2nd request!

    Online citizenship test

    That's comforting to know, thanks. I would assume so, too. Doesn't make sense to me to re-do everything from scratch because it's going to yield the same result anyway. I think they just want to keep fingerprints valid throughout the entire process. Though like @Lex2019 said, fingerprints...

    Can anyone please confirm if receiving a 2nd fingerprints request means they are going to re-do all background/security checks again even though they were completed the first time just because fingerprints have expired?
