Hey @armoured I have question.

For the 2 pictures that need to be submitted with the passport, it says:
*The back of one (1) photograph must:
bear the name and date of birth of the subject, as well as the name and complete address of the photography studio
bear the date the photograph was taken
the photographer may use a stamp or handwrite this information. Stick-on labels are unacceptable.

Is it okay if both pictures do? Or is one supposed to have all that info and one is completely blank? I think I’m reading too much into it but would like to know what you did. Thank you :)

Please tell will there be any update on gckey Or ecas when we will be getting PPR
From my experience: you may get the actual PPR through gckey (email notification that correspondence awaits you in gckey). After that, literally no changes until the actual visas were printed.

Does anyone know if all passport requests require sending in new pictures? Or is that just for some countries? I'm a US applicant and thought that the pictures with the original application+the biometrics pictures were all that was required?

Instructions should be on your passport request email.

The main thing to consider:

- Photographs must reflect your current appearance (taken within the past six (6) months).

Follow up: I renewed my Canadian passport during the course of this last year, and what with Covid related delays, my photos were a few days over "six (6) months" old by the time my paperwork was being processed.

They contacted me and requested new photos.
