as schools are closed how do we get school record information for Kids? any inputs?

Thanks,
Vinay

Yes you can. I got mine yesterday. Just send the school an email requesting your child's student profile. It must show full name, DOB and photograph. They will send you a pdf document for you to download and print at home.

Yes, it's called Student Profile. It should look something like the sample shown here: https://www.google.com/amp/s/blog.quickschools.com/2014/08/23/printable-student-profile/amp/

The student profile is like a cover page with the student index card attached.

Hi everyone, given all the studios are closed, does the photo needed to have taken by a professional studio? A friend of mine has a photographic paper and a suitable printer. Can he take the photos and write down his name as the photographer in the back?

Update for citizenship photo from Ottawa.

I went to Shoppers Drug Mart. None of their stores take photos due to instructions from Head Office and temporary removal of non essential services directive.

I called up the UPS head office - They said all UPS stores in Canada are able to take photos. Was asked to call stores to find if they do it now.
I called 5 UPS stores here. They either don't have a photo kiosk or have discontinued their photo services. Of these, only one store in downtown had a photo kiosk though.

Walmart and Costco stopped taking photos even before Shoppers stopped.

I have run out of options. Does anyone know from where I can get a photo taken? Anyone from Ottawa? Any ideas?

If you're in the GTA you can look for "Pro Passport Photo". Most of them are convenience stores with a place in the back, with a portable backdrop where they can take a photo. I had mine taken at one of these locations for my PR visa. Some may still be open, no guarantee though. Good luck!

correct, I got it today.

these are ups stores.

@preethy.wils I was planning to send out my application this week. So I called this place at the Passport Office (Service Canada building) in Scarborough, ON to get my photos taken today. The lady there said they were closed and suggested that I wait out till May 15 because photos with the current date might cause an issue with the officials as we have been asked to stay put. It does make sense considering photo centres are not essential services.

There are some pro passport photo locations around but they had no/low reviews. I don't want to risk my application for that.

parents are also applying for citizenship and I just have a doubt that I filled application for minor 5(2) -CIT0003 is that the right application? I see some is asking for school records. I did nt find any thing like that on my application. is that the right application for me?

bobbyputhenveettil · Apr 23, 2020

do we need to stick all the photos in the application or just to keep in an envelope? need studio stamp, name of applicant , date of photo taken should be there in the back of the photo?

If you still haven't done it, then you can do it at 1996photolab. They have couple of locations in Ottawa. You just need to make an appointment and go. I did it today and super easy and safe. It was 25$. http://1996photolab.com/

Crystal clear in the application guide.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-0002-application-canadian-citizenship-under-subsection-5-1-adults-18-years-older.html#Step3

include two (2) identical citizenship photos

print the Citizenship Photo Specifications page and take it to a photographer to make sure you get the correct size photo

don’t staple, glue or otherwise attach the photo directly to the application.

School records is an example of what could be used as personal identification for the child.

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/guide-0003-application-canadian-citizenship-minors-under-18-years.html

Two (2) pieces of the child’s personal identification

Both pieces of identification should show your child’s name and date of birth, one of which must have a photo on it.

Examples include:

school record

health insurance card

If there is information on both sides of your child’s personal identification documents, provide a photocopy of both sides.

For a child under school age, identification such as:

a passport page containing their photo and personal details, or

a hospital or immunization record, may be provided

Format: Clear and legible photocopy

Note: You cannot use your child’s permanent resident card as identification.

The link to the 'correct' application form can be found here
