So I just realized that I did not write name on back of the photos in my package. Any suggestions? Should I sent new photos now. Thanks for any advice.

If you're a single applicant, then extremely likely it would be fine (people reported their apps were accepted despite not writing their names on the back). If family applicant, then as long as you attached each applicants photos to their own forms, it may be accepted.

Photos need to be dated and name/address of studio on the back is a must however.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll just keep my fingers crossed then as I’m a single applicant and it did have the photographer stamp and date.
