i know some one landed in Jan 1 2011 , at the airport they said the photos are not ok and they took new photos

in Mar 1 2011 , he got a call from CIC to re do the photos again

in Apr 2 2011 he got his pr

another one got his pr after 4 months without asking for new photos

now if u left canada before getting the pr , what are the disadvantages

First, the risk of losing the PR card while shipping to where your location most esp outside North America. Secondly, as what you have said if theres a photo problem, accdg to others you have to be in Canada personally to have photo taken. I dont know yet the process how to re enter...

Hoping & praying that my PR card will be in my hands within this week.. It took 9 wks & 4 days til my friend received it.
