Hi all,
I applied from Canada as a student. I was not asked to submit any police clearance or fingerprints from Canada. However, I heard some opinions that obtaining fingerprints from RCMP and submitting them to the consulate after medicals will speed up the outstanding criminal+security checks and shorten the time between meds and ppr.
Is that true? did anyone submit police clearance and fingerprints from Canada? how quickly did you get your ppr?
thanks!

Fingerprints aren't used in the Security Check, only in Criminal records checks. A name check is done in Canada, and if there is a person charged/convicted with the same name and age, ONLY then will fingerprints be required.
