Im sure this question has been asked many times before but just wondering about photos...on the Appendix A Document checklist, it says we need to supply 8 photos but on the other document checklist, it says you only need to send 2 photos, can someone tell me which is the correct number and which checklist should I follow, thanks in advance

I don't know where you are applying however I know in my Latin America country guide (if you are applying outland) that takes precedence over the other guides. So whatever it says in your country guide is the one you should go with.

Im applying outland from Ireland...so I think I have to send papers to Missisauga Ontario and then from there they will send paperwork to London UK is what Im guessing?

Send the amount in the Region Specific Guide.

If you are applying outland to the ireland office you'll want to follow these instructions, the regional guide:

Which form says that you only need to send 2 photos?

I'm sponsoring my husband and we sent in the 8 photos that they requested in the country specific guide. He just took in his passport to the VO this morning along with two additional passport photos as they requested when they called last week.

Hope that helps a bit.

@Eskimokiss, the appendix A document checklist-immigrant form says 8 photos but the document checklist for spouse or commonlaw partner says you send 2 photos...

@bling, I guess more is better?? im just wondering if part of the 8 were for the medical exam(they needed 4 photos) that we used for applying from outland...

Hmm, I do not see a requirement on Document Checklist that says 2 photos. But regardless, you should still follow Appendix A because it says: If there is a conflict between this guide and any other versions or publications, this document and its instructions take precedence and are to be followed.

ok, its 8 photos...I was looking at the wrong form, sorry for the confusion we used up some photos for the medical(thought it was 8 in total but its 8 in addition to the med pics), do you think it will matter if there are 2 different sets of 4 photos? hope it will be ok

The guide says that you have to submit identical photos, so I think 2 different sets would be a bad idea.

They must be the same.
