June 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

[Yellowkarizma32]

P2 came about an hour ago. Just submitted everything. We were adjusting the photo for a long time to resolve the brightness warning, but we couldn't get it to resolve no matter what exposure or brightness adjustment we used. We increased exposure to the point of almost washing him out, and we still got the warning. We finally gave up and submitted with the warning. Hopefully, the case worker will find the photo to be sufficient.

Hi, a quick FYI, the photo being too bright or too dark is a common issue with IRCC, just submit the photo as is and it should be good. I was given this information by the place where I got my photos taken.

Yeah, we submitted it. I am suspicious that the tool is calibrated in a biased way with a very small range of acceptable values.
