Hello everyone,

I know that this has been talked about before, but I still find myself confused. According to my country specific guide, I'll need 4 photos for the immigration process, and 4 for Medical (so 8 total). What my concern is people have mentioned putting names and dates on the photos. I couldn't find this anywhere in my guide, so does that mean I don't need them? If I do need information on these photos, what should I provide.

I can't post the link to the US immigrant guide, but it's 3910e.

Just get 10 photos and put on the back of one your name and date of birth. That way they see who that photo is supposed to be and they have the 8 plus one extra. I have read many posts here stating different things and got confused too. This way you give them more than they need. I read that they return photos if you write your name on them but the way I did it they just discard the one as it is just for their info.
