Hello everyone,
I am preparing the application under the skilled workers category. They say that all the applications should be posted to Canada first. Question
1. Should we affix photo in the application form(IMM 0008 Generic)? The Document Checklist(IMM5612E) says not to send any additional photos during this time.
Please help.

Regards
Shree

Thanks for the info. Still hesitant on the word "additional" photos. Does it mean that the photos asked in the forms should be affixed, but no additional photos required or no photos to be affixed at this time. If anybody had done the application recently and had it got accepted, please let me know.

Wording is: " "Additional documents" and photos are not required at this time."

Also says submit only those documents requested by the checklist. Photos are not requested by the checklist.

Photos are not required for application to CIO. Mine was accepted, no photos.
