No, it means your office is now St. Clair, not Ottawa anymore.
Are you sure of this?
I thought that all finger prints go to St Clair to get processed then they are forwarded to the local office?

Not likely. What about areas outside of Ontario?

Only a few, my observation is about 1/7-1/8. You can have your fingerprints taken at any licensed agencies. You can find the list from CIC website, just google "CIC Fingerprints".

I don't think everyone get a fingerprint request. It happens when there are multiple people with the same name / similar dates of birth etc... We did ours at Commissionaires.

Hi
I also got it from St. Claire and I am from Windsor. I think all fingerprints are being sent from St Claire, but it doesn't mean it is our local office.
Good luck

To be honest, I am more than happy if my local office is not St. Clair. I simply just don't like this office as I have seen so many cases processed by this office take months even years to finalize.

Excellent news! Good luck with the exam! It's not that difficult, but make sure you read Discover Canada a few times (I read it 3 times) and take the online exams. They really helped!

Got my test invitation. It is from Mississauga Office. I think this proves your guess: my local office is still Mississauga but FP request was sent by St. Clair.
