In the PPR email, I have been asked to send two pictures along with my passport. Can I use the same photo that I sent with PR application? (This photo was taken in July 2013).

I would go & click 2 new pics as CIC require photos should not be more than 6 months old

Hmm okay. Another confusion I have is about dimensions of these photos.

The email asks to send "passport size photos".

Canadian passport size is :
50 mm wide X 70 mm high (2 inches wide X 2 3/4 inches long) and sized so the height of the face measures between 31 mm (1 1/4 inches) and 36 mm (1 7/16 inches) from chin to crown of head (natural top of head)

But some people say we should send 35 mm* 45 mm ( the same size sent originally with the PR application ).

What should I do?

35 mm* 45 mm ( the same size sent originally with the PR application ). that is absolutely right.

agree with akapoor. The small one not the "passport size photo". CIC makes trouble for us. To avoid delay, I submitted both small one and passport size photo one just because I got same confusion as you. Actually, the small one was used on the COPR.

it wasted me $45 for my family and myself.
