    Why are people going over the 20 picture limit?

    Interesting. I don’t think lawyers would have “insider” knowledge so I am surprised she recommended that especially since the requirement is bold and clear. I wouldn’t have time to sift through hundreds of pictures per applicant—maybe thats why the waiting times are so long :rolleyes...
