Hi All,
Finally, received my credentials today after the first email which was on May 25, 2021.
I received an email to upload a photo and confirm my presence in Canada.
Did anyone submit the same photo which was uploaded during EE profile submission? I got a photo taken in January 2021 and it satisfied the 6 months condition. But while uploading the photo during express entry submission, photo specifications were 35mm x 45mm and now they are pointing to
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/new-immigrants/pr-card/apply-renew-replace/photo.html where it's 50mm x 70mm. I know this page was for a hard copy while we are submitting the digital copy with only the front view. Curious to know what others end up doing.
This is what was in the help icon (?) while submitting the EE photo
