Why was your photo rejected? Did you not go to a pofessional phtoto centre and asked them for photos for permanent residence...

We used professional photos. I told them the correct size and they even told me that they already knew since they did it so many times.
Reasons - facial area is too small/too big; other; incorrect photo size

Before you got the credentials email I assume you had gcms notes sayimg approved and you simply didn t receive any email from ircc right?
Can you tell me how your gcms Finalize application looked before you received the credentials????? Please tell me what the user remark line under COPR DOCUMENT ISSUANCE SAID IN YOUR GCMS NOTES Please and thank you

Hello all, I need some expert advice regarding my application. I applied for cec in April and got portal request by email on November 7. I replied to it immediately but now I have got a reminder and I replied to that as well. Looking at forums, I see that many people are having this issue. I need to travel to my home country in December and come back in January. I was wondering if I can do so since I have a valid work permit and visa until November 2022. For example, I get login credentials by Nov end and I dont update the portal so would this help delaying my pr process so i can enter the country again on my work permit?
Thanks to everyone in advance and I cannot delay my trip since I'm getting married and all reservations have been made.

As of now you stated to IRCC that you are inside Canada. Doesn't matter how long they take to give you credentials. As soon as you leave Canada you are supposed to let IRCC know that you are no longer inside Canada. With that being the case, your file will have to be transferred to the Canadian embassy at your home country.
You don't have control to delay or expedite anything and you are not supposed to trick them to optimize your chances.
Once you get the credentials you might get COPR right away or you might not. Either way, you won't be able to enter Camada on the way back if copr is issued and you don't have your PR card yet. It is very tricky and I advise you to delay your trip if you don't have your PR card before you leave Canada.

Same for me. Facial area too small/too big.
Professional photo studios: PR photo settings in their system is actually not the correct size. Ask for security guard size dimensions.

In the gcms notes. Page 2 of the notes has assessments: security criminality info sharing eligibility etc.. Final
Then towards the end of the notes there is a page called Finalize application. There you can find copr and counterfoil created
