The following reply thus far on your query from our fb group members:

1st reply:
Bro wat I gather is - u need to shoot the photographs thru a "Digital Camera" & not thru the poloroids the studio uses.
Some Digital camera hv option of "Date printing" facility on the photo or on the back of the processed snap.
Its my thought ..... sm seniors or an experienced cameraman may evaluate much better.

2nd reply:
Bro first dnt panic u hvnt done any wrong. Just send a case specific email stating that you had to leave canada due to ..... reasons. Now ask them if u can write date manually behind with s stamp? Stating that there is no facility in your place and you can mail them pics. Worst case scenario you might have to get a travel document and go. But I dont think it will be needed..

3rd reply:
CIC regulations require that the photo is a recent one. Most photography studios in Canada are aware of this and do stamp the date! I guess it could be written as long as it's in permanent ink, or use a sharpie & the photographer could just stamp on top of it - just my 2 cents

4th reply:
I think if you go to any digital studio that shoots and prints your photo instantly, they can do it for you, normally all six photos come out of the printer on one sheet, he can just put it backwards in the printer and print the date on it. Later he will cut the six photos according to the size you want.
In riyadh any digital studio will do it for an extra 10 riyals or so and should be the same in Khobar.
One more option is that you can email the digital photo to your friend in Canada and he can go and print it with the specs requested. Make sure the photo is taken with high resolution and big size so the studio is able to down size it to required dimensions.

5th reply:
Even in our case, Kids and my photos were fine for CIC and we got PR cards. My wife's got rejected and got same letter as yours. Since they accepted all ours where we did and how we wrote the date is not a problem. Problem will be with lack of clarity on photo. If wearing glasses ensure no reflection on glasses when photo clicks, infact you can even take picture without glasses(we did so), if wearing scarf ensure facial feature are not blocked etc... In CIC website clear guidelines with sample pics are available. Hope it helps.

6th reply
I had d same issue with my PR card photograph. CIC has done specifications like one should not wear glossy lipstick n don't smile etc that's available on the website. As for d date printed it means that the photo studio where u taker d photos puts a stamp on the back of the photograph that's all there's no special printed photos do don't worry. Just take new piks according to CIC guideline mail it to ur friend n have him print it at a photo studio so they can stamp d date at the back.
Thank you Rawdah, we sincerely appreciate your help. We have re snapped 2 shots with different shirts and the photographer stamped on 2 pics from each shot . So we will send 2 stamped and 1 unstamped of each tomorrow to a friend.

Hello Guys, please i need your input on this urgently.

I have received MR and RPRF request with request to update some forms.

My question is this. I changed jobs in the course of this application process and would like to know if it is necessary to update Accra VO about this change.

Will it delay the progress of the application in any way?

For those that updated their jobs, what documents did you send?

Please i need your responses.

Dear, If he is from Visa exempted country then he won't receive any PPR request, will receive only COPR.
