Are all applicants required to do fingerprints ? or is it solely based on luck ?
If there is match with someone who shares similar name and/or date of birth, they normally ask for fingerprints.

Hi guys. It looks like this year the things are a bit slow. I am really shocked to see that a very few lucky people got the invitation for test who applied in March or early April. I know 3 persons who applied in March last year and they were done with oath in August (Edmonton). And the processing time was 12 months last year as well. Is it because they changed the physical presence requirement from 4 to 3 years that have caused a backlog and causing a delay?
