taking permanent resident card photos BEFORE passport request?

[eletyl]

Is there any issue with getting my permanent resident card photos taken BEFORE receiving the official passport request?  Just to get it out of the way, since I will be super busy for the next several weeks.

(Buffalo sent us a letter asking for my RPRF - which we had already submitted upfront. So we re-sent the receipt, and are waiting for their next move.)

Can I assume PPR, at this point?  And is it okay to have a date before PPR printed on the back of the photos?

Also, just to double-check, are these the right specifications?  I am thinking of the photos I will bring with me in-person to Buffalo..

We just did our pictures in anticipation of PPR plus have everything else ready to go less the postal envelopes.

Whatever the new instructions were is what we took the the photographer. Sorry I didn't pay to much attention to them as it was not my department.

I didn't have a request for photos at the PPR stage... they already had them from the initial application.
