Hi, my wife took her picture from shoppers but they gave her the hard copy and not the soft copy. When I scan the hard copy, it obviously comes up small compared to the whole background. do people scan the hard copy or they only upload soft copy?
If you are uploading for the online portal landing you need a digital copy. Ask for a digital copy for your PR
I got hard copies too but I had to go back for digital copies which I used for my PR card I hope this helps!
Even I didn't get a digital copy from Shoppers so I scanned the physical copy myself to upload it for the PR application. I scanned it by keeping it on a piece of paper.
Got my ECOPR Finally

Congratulations and yes the photo part is a bit tricky!Just got the portal invite!! Uploading the photo is a pain though. It's throwing a server time out
Was able to sign up my spouse for a OHIP card yesterday using the above letter.
The rationale was that some applicants aren't even receiving sponsor/applicant approval emails, and they just go straight to PR portal invitation. In this letter we received it was implied that my spouse had been accepted, which technically fulfills the following OHIP documentation requirement:
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) letter (IRCC used to be called Citizenship and Immigration Canada, or CIC). The letter must:
be on IRCC letterhead, addressed to you as applicant
state IRCC has confirmed you meet the eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence in Canada and you have not yet been denied
We decided to give it a try so we went to the Service Ontario and the lady there checked with immigration and they agreed this document was enough to meet that requirement.
Currently that requirement allows Permanent Immigrant applicants to apply for a temporary (valid for 1y) health card while waiting for their COPR. When the COPR becomes available they then need to go update their health card with their COPR number.
More details on this in the section "For applicants for permanent residence" here: https://www.ontario.ca/page/documents-needed-get-health-card#section-0
Thanks! I have tried to upload the photo 5 times now but it keeps giving the server timeout error. Tried on Brave and Firefox. So irritating!
Did the photo shop give you a digital copy? If yes download it to the PC and then insert it and crop it the best way possible it wouldn’t be perfect but once they allow you to submit that should be fine.
if not email the help centre I think it’s someone in an email if you having issues with the online landing portal
No they didn't give me a digital copy. I scanned it myself. The scan was accepting initially when I submitted the PR application.
Right now the error is:
