I had a similar situation. I called CIC only to find out that my daughter’s profile had our address from back in Jamaica and an old email address. The agent told me they sent the request for new photos for my daughter to the old email address, if I didn’t call I would have waited for months and not gotten any update on her application status, because up to now nothing has changed , it just says Submitted. it’s best to call them to find out if there is any problem with your daughter application.

Not safe!! I gave myself 3 extra weeks (enough time you would think) from when i thought i was going to get my PR card... Last week i got a letter saying i had to re submit my photos. I had to re book my trip and now I'm down $1000 because of it. So i don't recommend lol
If they require new photos IRCC will email you in around 45 days from your application. That's the only correspondence you get from them after your application.
My photo had all the relevant details stamped/handwritten at the back but it was still rejectedHi there,
I see where you are coming from however, they do say as one of the specifications for the photos they have to have stamped date on the back and the address of where this photo was taken. Mine i know for sure didn't have this and i believe 100% this is why they were rejected. How does the person processing my card know when this photo was taken and where.... for all they know this isn't me and it could've been take 10 years ago so they have to reject it.
I should've paid more attention to the one she took from my 2 pictures i gave heroh well lesson learned!
An ex colleague of mine didn't have anything stamped or handwritten on the back of his photo, just like in your case, and he received his PR card in less than a month So I guess we can speculate endlessly why photos are rejected and still not come to a definite conclusion Good luck to us. Hope all of us get our PR cards soon.
For some reason they send a snail mail (physical post) request for children - in our case, we received a physical letter asking to resubmit our kid's photo 10 days after both my spouse and I received separate emails asking to resubmit our photos. If you don't hear anything from them in the next week it would be a good idea to call and check. All the best.
Yoo Baahubali, I respect your patience more than anything else. Just curious to know any progress with your case?
No progress. I call them once a week to get the same answer "we do not have any info on your photos. If the photos are alright then you will get the card in mail. Cannot give a time frame."
I landed at YYZ on April 7th. I know that my photo specs were okay and I had all the details stamped on the back. The only reason they could have (but I hope not) that the picture was taken at the time of Visa stamping (July 2017 in Abu Dhabo) so by the date of my landing in April 2018 the picture was more than 6 months old so unless that's a criteria??? I hope I should be fine.
Dang... sorry to hear that. Looks like there are other ppl here like me who landed in Jan still waiting.Just adding my case here:
Landed: Jan 23
Photo request 1: March 7
Photo Delivered: March 12
Photo request 2: May 1
Photo Delivered: May 4
It seems that I will complete six months after landing and I will not have my PR card
This is sad, I hope no one else goes through this and this is your last month of waiting.Just adding my case here:
Landed: Jan 23
Photo request 1: March 7

Photo request 2: May 1
Photo Delivered: May 4

Do you know why they requested photos for a second time?
If it is more than 6 months between the date of issue of the CoPR and the date of obtaining PR status, then they ask for new photos as obviously the photo is now more than 6 months old.
