Are fingerprints needed for whole family?

[eefrog]

Hello All,
Do I need to get fingerprints done for both me and my wife or do I just need them for me only ?
Please help clear this confusion for me.
Thanks,

For whole family.

When I applied, We did it for both of us(husband and wife). My daughter was 1 yr old at that time. We didn't do for her.

Being a woman, your wife can not be forgiven if she did any crime. I mean, FBI will check for any adult's criminal record by fingerprint cards.

Well thanks for your input. Still I am confused that you did it just cos you felt like it or the canadian immigration requires fingerprints for both the applicant and their spouse?

My wife is on H4 and I dont have any problems getting her fingerprints done, but it would be helpful to know if I have to, cos I for sure dont want to do it just for the heck of it.

Thanks,
eefrog

It is must.

It is must for your wife. Please do it. My wife was also on H1 at that time.
