Out of over-excitement I made the same boo-boo.

Though the photographer's name, address and date is stamped on both.

Should I go ahead and send one picture with my name and DOB on it?

My passport reached them on 29th May.

No. I think it may be because the photo I sent is of the wrong size. It is the old size.

So in order to know if your application is approved or not, you have to manually check your cic account regularly for changes?
NO emails notification?
