You can actually write to minister of citizenship and immigration as feedback and bring this to his attention, who might take steps getting several emails. One or two emails he might even ignore.

Hi Guys, I receive a photo re-submission request through email.

They are requesting for 2 new photo. On back of one, I need to put my name, date of birth, name of studio and address of studio. Does this mean that the other should not have the same details and should be empty?

Does that photo have to be sealed like in a studio's small envelope?

Also, it should come with that letter request. Can I fold that letter?

I am sending this letter and photo from Abu Dhabi directly to Nova Scotia, is that ok?

Sorry if this question may sound stupid, I just need a clarification and don't want this to be repeated again. Thank you.

Yes, Other should be empty from back.

It can be in any envelop , use a normal letter envelop that would be fine as far as you do not have to fold your pictures to fit in it.

You can send directly to nova scotia at their address not P.O Box. Address is

Case Processing Centre - PRC
49 Dorchester Street
Sydney, NS
B1P 5Z2

You can fold the letter (actually that is self identification form saying your UCI, name, eye color and height)

It is okay to send from anywhere as far as it reaches them

I had both photos stamped and dated. I hope this wont cause any issues. I have heard that it is perfectly normal.

Ok. I re submitted photos in last week of April and CIC received them on April 25th. I think we might get our PR cards by the end of this month HOPEFULLY!!
Hi,
Just need to ask on which address you submit your photo's. How did you come to know that your Photo's has been received. I am thinking to send photo's through Canada xpress to have record that they have received that.
Did you also submit IMM 5455 Supplementary form along with pics?

Hello folks!
We landed on 27-May-16.. Got to know from the blog that new photo's are required. I didn't receive any request so far from CIC.

We got new photo's and ready to send. I called agent and she said wait till you receive the request otherwise it will get lost...

1- Just to expedite the process, shall I send the photo's even without request from CIC?

2- To confirm whether they receive it, only Canada Xpress post with signatures is the way to track that CIC has received the post? So shall I use that and which will be the address then?

3- Shall I include IMM-5455 Supplementary form for all family members?

Much worried about delays......

The letter that came with the photo request was the Supplementary identification form (Filled and printed for you by them).

Thanks for advise. The above address is different than the one below which they normally asked to other applicants for sending photo's.
Case Processing Centre - PRC
P.O Box 4500
Sydney, NS
B1P 6L1

Do you believe that if photo's send on 49 Dorchester Street address through Canada Xpress post, they will not get lost and will be acceptable by Case Processing Centre - PRC. Please advise.

Furthermore, I didn't receive the Photo request so far. Shall I send the photo's with Supplementary forms filled by my self for me and for my wife and kids. This is because I want to avoid un necessary delays cause by pics when they will start reviewing my case.

Thats exactly what I said that download the form online fill it yourself and send photos so when you get photos request your envelop is already in queue. Send it atleast after 4 weeks of your PR card application. You will save about 2 weeks in later processing than.

The address is same and is for courier since international courier do not deliver to PO Box addresses. If you send to PO box you will not be able to track and know if it has been delivered. If you send to address i provided you will be able to track it and get signatures
