Do I need Fingerprints for Canadian Citizenship Application if I Live Outside of Canada?

If you are currently living outside of Canada and are applying for a Canadian Citizenship, you require a RCMP Criminal Record Check with fingerprints. A Canadian Citizenship requires a criminal record check with fingerprints from every country that you have lived in for more than 6 months to ensure that you have no criminal record or charges associated with you. As RCMP accredited fingerprinting company, we can process fingerprints taken outside Canada and submit to the RCMP electronically. The completed Canadian RCMP criminal record check will be couriered to your preferred mailing address or citizenship office directly, depending on your request.
