Hi everyone! I just received my P2 email and I’m trying to upload my photo. When I upload it, I get a message saying “Your photo may be too bright or too dark.” Also, my original photo is in colour, but after uploading, the preview appears black and white.
Has anyone experienced this? Is this normal, or does it mean there’s an issue with the photo? I’d really appreciate it if anyone who has already completed P2 could let me know. Thank you!

IMPORTANT UPDATE – Photo Brightness Issue
Just wanted to share my experience in case anyone else is having the same problem.
Yesterday, I went to several places, including London Drugs, Shoppers, and other locations, and took photos from the afternoon until the evening. Unfortunately, when I got home and uploaded them, all of the photos were rejected with the error:
“Brightness is too dark or too bright.”
I was really stressed because I had read on the IRCC website that we should not edit the photo or change its settings ourselves, so I didn’t want to use any editing tools and risk causing a problem.
All my photos yesterday were taken while I was wearing black clothing.
Today, I decided to try again and simply changed my clothing. I wore a light green top, took a new photo, and it was accepted immediately!
So, in my case, changing from black clothing to a light color seems to have made the difference.
I’m sharing this because someone else might be experiencing the same issue and feeling stressed about it. Hopefully this helps someone!
Wishing everyone the best, and I hope we all receive the PR cards we’ve been waiting for for so long very soon.
