Is biometrics one of the requirements in citizenship.? i read that those who have never given , because prior to 2019 this was not needed, then now we get an Biometric instruction letter.. Anyone knows if this is mandatory now for us if not given previously?

I was asked to submit my biometrics twice

I have been waiting for my oath invitation for the past 4 months. Did my citizenship test on November 18th . I received fingerprinting request on March 23rd . This was the second time they asked for fingerprint . The other request was March 2021.
Has anyone else been in a similar boat waiting longe than 4 months after the test

Hello everyone, I have a question regarding my citizenship application:
My passport has only a given name no surname, when I applied for PR at that time I applied with my name in the "Family name" field and "given name" as blank.
Now I am thinking of using my husband's family name, shall I apply for citizenship with this changed info and marriage certificate attached or shall I apply just as is and after citizenship change my name.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

i think that let everything is straightforward, you should not change anything until you become a Canadian. change name, your application may be non-routine. But this is your choice

Thanks for you response !!
so recommended is to change name after citizenship is granted.. do you have any idea if family name process will be easier after ?
