Medical exam question.

Great. Thank you so much. I've mentioned your responses to her already and she feels very relieved. I think she plans to call CIC on Monday just to be 100% certain. But again, thank you.

I'm asking this question for someone else who is stressed out right now due to the fact that the photos used on the medical exam are different than the ones that the sponsor took back to Canada to complete the application... They initially had 12 photos taken. She took 8 that are needed for the application papers and her husband took 4 for the medical exam. Before the medical, the doctor's office told him he needed to have 5 photos for the medical exam and so he went and got 5 more taken at another photo place and returned to receive his medical exam. Now his sponsor is worried because she's finishing up the application now in Canada and has 8 different photos than the ones used for the medical exam. Is it ok to have different sets of photos? It could be very difficult for them to go reprints of the same photos used in the medical exam as this one done in a city 4 hours away from the applicant's city as there is only one designated DMP for the whole country for Canadian PR applicants.

So, long story short, do the photos have to be the same that are used for the medical as they are when submitting the PR application package? Does it state it somewhere in the guides?

Thanks.

when we did the medicals we had a set of passport size photos and we gave those; now we r finally ready to submit and realized that those photos were older than 6 months, so we'll submit new ones; many embassies have the process longer than 6 months and they could ask new set of photos when they r ready to issue the visa, photos which will probably b different of the medical ones so i don't think it really matters; they don't say it in the guide either
