A-Man is the ONLY person on this forum who actually read his PPR letter carefully enough to see that it DOES NOT ask for photos of the principal applicant! My letter was the same as his, and clearly said it wanted a photocopy of the passports of the principal applicant and accompanying family members and photos of the accompanying family members.
I guess as often happens with CIC, they didn't say what they meant, and wanted his photo, too. Their bad, not his! After I read his post, I felt like an idiot for sending my photos as well as my partner's!
