But now that Bill C-10 is behind us we are seeing fingerprints returned to us anywhere from 5 days &#8211; 1 month in 95% of our cases.<\/p>\n<p>So this is good news. I will not speculate on exactly what changed at the RCMP but one commenter from a previous post thought maybe the RCMP had been advised by the government to process those requests at a slower pace. I have no idea if that is true of course. It seems like it would be illegal. But it wouldn&#8217;t surprise me in the least.<\/p>\n<p>I suppose we will never what caused the delay and at this point it is not really important. What matters is that fingerprint requests are being process in a timely manner. And if anything is going to help people get a pardon or a waiver in a reasonable amount of time it surely starts with an RCMP fingerprint check.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GOOD NEWS!
