Change in photo specifications?

[MNM2015]

It seems to me that they have changed the photo specifications in the country specific guides. Did anyone else notice this or am I going crazy and was looking at the wrong place before? The photos must now be larger (50 by 70mm vs 35 by 45mm) and have the info of the studio that took them on the back.

Looks like the guide was updated in December. Any chance they would accept the old size of photos for an application submitted in December? We took our photos in November and had to travel several hours to find a studio to the do the photos the correct size.

Thanks!

I noticed this too. We ended up going back and asking them to re-print as per the new size; better to be safe I guess. We still haven't submitted our application so we thought to change the photos.

I recall only one of the photos needs to be stamped on the back by the photography studio.

We did our photos at Costco last weekend. We asked for PR pictures and when we picked them up we noticed that the pictures are huge. So I asked if they are sure that these are the PR pictures. They confirmed. Yes, we should have had the photo specification paper with us, just to be sure. We did the photos last year as well and the pictures were much smaller, but we ended up not sending the package last year as we didn't have one year of continuous cohabitation.

I would redo the picture if I were you. Better safe than sorry.
