Hi Everyone,

I received ITA recently. I believe there is a requirement for uploading digital photos. Can someone shed light on the spec and who can take the photographs? Are there any professional places that specialize in this? Also, is it okay to take a physical photo and then scan it through mobile and upload it?
 
Temporary residents (students, workers, visitors), Express Entry and Canadian citizenship certificate

The photo must show a full front view of the head and tops of shoulders, with the face in the middle of the photo.
Size of the head, from chin to crown, must be between 31mm and 36mm.
Image size: at least 420 x 540 pixels We accept JPEG or JPEG2000 format.
File size: approximately 240 kB, no more than 4 MB.
Image must be in colour (24 bits per pixel) in RGB colour space, the common output for most digital cameras.
If you scan an existing photo, the minimum resolution must be 600 pixels per inch.

The help button at placeholder for photo will give you all the details.
 
Hi, in the USA we are not getting digital photos, I got the printed copies and when I scanned them, the dpi is 300 and the resolution in pixels is 603X843. But the scanned size is not 50x70 mm even though the actual photo is. How can I correct it? Also how to make the dpi 600? Please help.

You can click these yourself against white background and then get those cut to size using websites like idphotos4u.com
Over there you can control the resolution, or download from there and then change the resolution in MS Paint (Windows) yourself. It is pretty easy.
