Hi, I did my fingerprint yesterday. However, I just received a receipt of my payment. I was given no DCN number or anything else. Should I be worried? Should I go back and ask for a DCN number or something?

Folks, IRCC wrote me regarding my fingerprints: "[following up on your RCMP criminal check, we sent you a letter] requesting new fingerprints because the previous one was missing the photo/ photo was invalid".

What does this sound to you?

In their fingerprints request, there was no mention of photos, and the international agency I used (Gambit) itself had it said somewhere that the RCMP does not require photos either (and it has to be true because the RCMP produced the criminal check).
Hi, what is DCN number? I was given no DCN number. Please kindly advise. Should I go back to RCMP and ask for a DCN number?

Email : ccrtis-scictr@rcmp-grc.gc.ca

Mention in email following details and request when your FP was mailed out to IRCC Vancouver (or other as applicable):

1- Purpose of FP : citizenship
2-Full name
3- Current address
4- Date of Birth
5- DCN number (from the paper Fingerprints agency gave you)
6- Name and address of FP agency you have used
7- IRCC office to which FP has to be mailed.

Good luck
I did my fingerprint in RCMP yesterday. I was given no paper other than the receipt of my payment I'm so worried. What should I do? Should I go back and ask for a DCN number? Please kindly advise. I'm so worried.

You would probably get an email within 24hrs from where you did your fingerprint with the details. At least that’s what I got. I did not get a DCN number on paper, but got it later in the evening on email.

I went to RCMP yesterday and asked for a DCN, but the representative told me that “you don’t need a DCN number to follow up. We don’t provide a DCN number for stuff like fingerprinting either”. I was surprised!
