Request for fingerprints!
Can someone help me in answering my question.
I received a request from Citizenship & Immigration Canada today requesting that I have my fingerprints taken, before they can proceed with our families Canadian Citizenship application.
A couple of things are mentioned in their letter as to why. The letter mentions Section 21 & 22 of the Citizenship Act, which all pertains to parole, probation order, in prison etc. None of which applies to me.
Since moving to Calgary nearly five years ago. I have had two driving convictions.
1. Failing to come to a complete stop at a stop sign.
2. Failing to adhere to a road sign.
Could these driving offenses be enough for my application to be refused?
(I am currently pulling my hair out.....gahhhhh)

Re: Request for fingerprints!
I had this request with no prior history the people at the fingerprinting agency told me that this was more common than I realized and my name ( although unusual ) probably matched someone's with criminal convictions
It wasn't a problem my fingerprints were digitally sent the same day
Good luck
