for PR photo, are those required upfront during the application ? I have my photos from 2019 which i used them for Work permit application. Should i get a new photo or apply with the same one ? If i need to retake it, can i take photo from Shoppers ?

You can't use a photo from 2019, he has to be within the last 6 months. I believe shoppers only take hard copy passport photo size.

Does it have to be a digital photo only, where can i take one ?

I took my own, never had any issues

It should be in the past 6 months. I took from shoppers, but they only give you hard copy. I scanned it and will upload that.

Ok, i will go to shoppers tomorrow to get it done then. Do they have stamp in shoppers ? I believe back of the photo must be stamped by the photo issuer or something like that ?

They do stamp the back of the photo, but I don’t think that’s necessary. They probably just want a digital photo.

I was able to get just the digital copy from shoppers. They put it in a new flash drive and costs $29.99 totally. Along with that, I received a separate hard copy of a regular-sized photo paper with the my PP photo and the photograph details and date and time. Should I upload the digital photo plus scan this photo and upload that as well?

Well I guess it depends on which shoppers you go to then. We don’t know yet, but they probably want the digital. Just have both of them ready and upload whichever they ask on May 6th.

Ah...Just paid for the application. I guess there's no going back now.

I honestly don't think the stream for IG will close within a day, mostly because of IELTS, but the system will crash for sure so paying upfront feels like a good idea considering the payment portal stopped working for a few days last week.

Other than that, 1 week to go guys. Since the payment portal is up, we might get lucky and see the program page uploaded (not accepting registrations though) soon either tomorrow or early next week.

Me too. My life flashed before my eyes when I clicked that 'Proceed to payment' button.

Do you already have your proficiency test results? I'm doing my test on Saturday and the results will be out in 4-5 days. If it's four days I get it on May 5th and I'll be ready, if not I hope the portal will be open for a day.

Also waiting for my Graduation Letter and official transcript. Do you think they'll need both for IG's? Hopefully, I'll get both before May 6th.

My anxiety is through the roof!!

Yes, I wanted to apply for CEC in May so when the stream was announced I could have applied right in the spot :')

No, you didn't get the graduation certificate, very likely ineligible. you can still have that money back.

So guys what do you recommend that I pay upfront that Fee they require or not? Should I wait? I will get my celpip results back on 16th or 17th of May.
