photo requirements CEC

[americandesimd]

Hello Friends,

Do we have to print the date the photo was taken or can we just write it with pen?
The photos I clicked have height slightly more than 45mm. Is that fine? The photo studio guy said he does photos for Canada citizenship and the photos should work?

Shall i send these photos or click new ones. please guide from your experience.

Thanks.

I prefer stamping date, but nowhere does it say you cannot write the date - so it might be ok.

A slight difference in height is not a big deal. If VO can't accept it, CIC will ask for a new set of photos. Worst case scenario - it might delay your application process by a few weeks. I wouldn't worry about the application package being returned.

Yea, I wrote the date on the back of my photos and it was fine.

I too wrote the date on its back and signed too. I got AOR so no big deal, if they have any issue they will ask for photo during PPR..no biggie
