depending on where you are, there may be places that do the exact specifications for canada immigration. i believe walmart machines have it? also, you can try cutting the pictures down to size, just make sure your face doesn't get cut off and it takes up the entire picture. no one can really tell you if they will be accepted. all you can do is submit them and see if your card/visa will be issued or if they request additional pictures.

The photos must conform to the specifications.

As rhcohen2014 mentioned, you can certainly cut them down to match the required dimensions, but it's just as important to have the size of your face correct, within those dimensions.

Personally, I wouldn't risk altering a photo yourself. Drive wherever you need to go to get it done right.

i have the exact size of 35 mm x 45mm but the size of the face is the problem, it says 25mm x 30 mm,, photographers here cant really get the exact size of the face :/

Hi, this is my first post and I would appreciate any quick feedback!

I had my PR photos taken at a local passport/PR photo place.
They have my face right in the middle of the range which is perfect, but they didn't do a great job cutting the photos.

The size should be 35x45 but some are 34x46 or 35x46 or 34x45.

Every photo is about 1mm off on at least one side. Will this be an issue?

Thanks!
