One of the complications of being a US citizen living in Canada is that I need to get permanent residency status, and there's an awful lot of paperwork involved. Fortunately, TWU contracted an immigration lawyer to help me out, but the whole thing is still very confusing to me. Today I got my fingerprints taken at a local RCMP station; we'll send them in to the FBI to get a criminal background check. I don't think anything will turn up! :) I did find it interesting that the fingerprint forms aren't merely the usual ten finger tips, but also imprints of your four fingers together, and your thumb, extending down to the 2nd and 1st phalanges.
