Nope.

Since digital photos don't have a "size" in terms of millimeters, I just submitted the PR card photo to EE as well. They didn't have a problem with it.

Thanks for replying AAlhadka.. +1 for you. Did you upload it with the initial submission of documents? I mean in one of the slots? My sister is really worried as she got a decision made on ecas but was only asked for RCMP beforehand. She didn't upload it during the initial submission of documents, plus it's too early for "decision made" in our opinion she just got AOR in july :(

Hello all,

Very very happy to report that I've done my landing today at Toronto's airport. I went for a trip, then came back.

The whole process went very well and smooth. There was a lineup of around 15-20 people, seems like mostly were students getting their study permits.

The officer that interviewed was super nice and helpful. There was only one interview, took around 5-10 minutes. No documents were needed other than my COPR and Passport.

After all was done, I got the magical 3 word phrase "Welcome to Canada".

Thank you all for the keeping me sane throughout the entire process. And all the best to everyone.

You never know how fast or how slow an application might be processed, I've seen people applied in July and got DM too... so nothing to worry about.

As for me, English form never came as part of my upload documents, RCMP for my husband was requested latar in the process, so technically if she has been asked for RCMP so this is a very good sign and it means that her application was moving smoothly.

If she is single and didn't travel much plus maybe in an occupation that is highly needed, this might explain why her app moved so quickly...
Good luck and keep us informed when she receives PPR!
