Should I upload the front of the photo and the back with the stamp? Or just the front? In that case, can the picture be taken by myself if I have a professional camera?

1 - Only the front, the back was required for the old paper applications, not for express entry.

2 - As long as it follows the requirements you can take the photo.

Cheers ;)

Hi. It says the photo should not be older than 6 months. Suppose I have taken my photo on 4th of Feb 2017, can I still use it to apply now (July 14th 2017)?
