So, someone got PPR last week on September 5th (AOR Feb 8th)
Today someone else got PPR, on September 10 (AOR Feb 11th)

What does that tell ya? It took IRCC to move from AOR 8th to 11th in 3 business days!! So they handle 4 AOR days in 3 days.

So lets calculate:
AOR 12 13 14 15 = They should get PPR in 3 business days! (End of this week)
AOR 16 17 18 19 = They will get by Sep 18th.
AOR 20 21 22 23 = By 23rd.
AOR 24 25 26 27 = By the end of month!

This calculation is based on current volume of applicants! So basically Express Entry officers are 1 month behind.
Everyone should get the PPR in 7 months EXACTLY!

Case closed!
Given recent PPRs I want to beleive this theory so much!

I'll answer the first part, with the link to photo requirements from my PPR: https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/migration/ircc/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/5445eb-e.pdf

Summary: 2 photos, taken by a commercial photographer, 5x7 cm, face/shoulders centred in the photo, height of face between 3.1 and 3.5 cm, white background, taken within the last six months. The date and contact details of the photographer need to be written on the back of one photo.

My advice would be to use a ruler to verify all the dimensions. The photographer I used first really messed up on the centering and height (way too much whitespace on top) - so I sat down with them to make sure they did acceptable ones.
Thanks for the info!! Can we take a new photo which is different from the submitted one?

Hey guys,

As you can see my theory is working:
AOR 12 13 14 15 = They should get PPR by end of this week.
AOR 16 17 18 19 = They will get by Sep 18th.
AOR 20 21 22 23 = By 23rd.
AOR 24 25 26 27 = By the end of month!

I forgot to say that this is the timing for 80% Express Entry applicants..If your AOR is passed from these dates, you are in those 20% complex cases.

P.S. I am 100% sure, it will be faster! It all depends how many officers go on vacation this month! if all of them stick to their job, it will be faster..

Appears that your theory isn’t applicable in my case . 8th Feb AOR. Ottawa VO. Recommend pass since July.
