Because of the photo issue, it doesn't comply with their requirements. So now I have to wait until I receive the letter, provide them a new set of photos and pick them up in Calgary. Hope this information helps!DILSE said:JPRAVELO,
How do you know that you have to pick up the are not going to send in the mail because for first time/ initial card they will mail it.

I also received the same email asking for the following documents the second time,
got an e-mail from Detroit office asking the following documents:
You are required to provide the documents listed below. If an interview is required, bring the original documents with you, otherwise submit photocopies of documents indicated. Documents in languages other than English or French must be accompanied by a certified translation - that is a translation prepared by an accredited translator.
1-Verifiable letters of reference from U.S. employers and clients detailing your dates of employment, hours worked per week, remuneration paid and duties

Please help me all with your suggestions!!!
