Hello was wondering if bill c12 evaluates citizenship files tough way after bill c12

Hi, I don't know about that. I submitted my citizenship application in August 2025 and got my citizenship 2 weeks ago.

Not everyone will get the fingerprint request.
For me no fingerprint request but my spouse got it.
It comes over the email with fingerprint request letter.

Hi all, I need to do finger prints, which location is better to have your finger prints, Police service or certified RCMP? or the RCMP location by the airport?

I personally haven't needed to do prints, but from what I've read here & online :

• Most go an RCMP accredited company (look for one here : https://rcmp.ca/en/criminal-records...vate-fingerprinting-companies-accredited-rcmp) near you.
• Pick one you like and look up their website for instructions/documents you need to carry.
• They'll do digital fingerprints and all the 'transferring' i.e. Agency > RCMP > IRCC will be handled automatically, without you needing to do anything.
