did any one do finger print overseas , printed on Canadian C216 form , provided by any authorized Canadian finger print agency like Commissionaires, and once did it overseas and mailed to commissionaires or any other agency, they sent it to RCMP on his behave and got accepted,
I got finger print request and I am in Egypt, I contacted Commissionaires who they do finger print , here in Canada, some applicant even used them, they are authorized finger print, they sent me a form C216, it is exactly the form , used here by all agency for finger print, and they told me to get my finger print on it, in my country, and mail it to them and they will submit it to RCMP, as I did it here, but I heard sometimes RCMP might not accept it if ink not clear in the form because taking it in other country, here in Canada, the finger print agency they know what they doing, they help you to get clear finger print clear, as Canadian standard, that is why I am asking, did any one get finger print overseas and got accepted by RCMP or they mostly deny it.

I think you need to check https://www.gambitid.com/international.html and contact them to verify all. GAMBIT managed everything, I only paid, went to VFS to give my ink fingerprints, GAMBIT digitized it and sent it electronically to RCMP, and RCMP sent them back the results, then GAMBIT sends you a scan copy of that, and forward it to IRCC. Hope this helps.
