I went to Sears. They said, they don't do that specification that's specified in Photo Specification sheet of the application package. They said, they only do the Canadian visa specification. In fact, I have done the photograph for Canadian Tourist Visa through Sears but, this one clearly says in the instruction 'Immigration Visa photographs are different from Passport Photographs'. And moreover the photograph that I took for Canadian Tourist Visa doesn't match the sizes mentioned in the Photo Specification section of the application package. Please advice.

Thank you.

I am going to attempt the local Walgreens... but probably not for another month. I can let you know how that goes over, but you may need this information quicker?

Hi nyssa ,
I had the same experience while sending photos for visa issuance.The local walgreens/CVS didn't know how to do it.So I took the pics myself in the store with my camera and used the self printing kiosks and tried to work with them.had to take pics a few time but it worked.measured and cut them up. Try it if you can .

VAS - Interesting. I'm happy that worked for you! I know, I'm not 100% on Walgreens. Maybe a professional studio is my best bet... I love your method, but I'm just too afraid to attempt it myself. Too bad I didn't get them done while I was in Canada.

You can take the pictures yourself and take them to any CVS/Walgreens. They give specifications of 2"*2" and will not make them any smaller. You will have to cut them out accordingly and adjust it with the specifications. But, make sure you click the snaps according to the specification provided.
