Deal All,

If you have picture taken already during your PR application process, your pic may not come under new spec. CIC rejected my pics 2 times earlier. I went to Shoppers Drug mart and the photographer there told me that the PR card spec changed (Feb 2016) recently and they received a fax message from CIC about this as well. The pic size is even bigger than earlier. I thought of sharing this.
