Is my PR status affected by this mistake??
I dont think your pr status is affected. The card application is seperate from pr application. If u have ur COPR, u r a PR. Card is the official documentation to present if you are travelling. But i recommend contacting IRCC contact centre asap. They are hard to get through due to call traffic, so call as early in the day as possible.

You may not reach them in a single try. Keep calling and be patient. Since they are the expert, they will give the best advice. One more thing...i dont exactly remember but i think my letter said that i need to reply within 6 months (not sure). So you still may have time. Also when you take the photo go to a place that knows what they are doing and some even guarantee on the accuracy of their photos.

Hi guys,

I landed in Canada couple of months ago as PR and I also gave the address for the first PR card on the day of the landing. I thought that was everything necessary to get the card but today I got an email asking for two new photos! This is weird because I had already submitted two photos with the PPR (I assumed they'll also be used for the initial PR card application). I did not know two new photos are required.

Is it OK if I take new photos or do they require a copy of the old photo? Do they care if it's different from what's on the CoPR?

Assuming they get my new pictures the next day, will they immediately process my application or will it be put at the back of the queue? Anyone with similar experience please share them.

Thanks
Unfortunately it goes at the back of the queue.
I have a similar case and received request for new photos. Here is my timeline :
Landed : 17 Aug, 2018
New Photo request : 5 Oct, 2018
Photos received by CIC : 15 Oct, 2018
Ghost update for profile update : 10 Nov, 2018
PR card approved : 22 Nov, 2018

Now waiting for the next stage .. Completed and mailed
Its a long drawn out process. I hope I get my card before 6th Dec as I am planning to go back around that time
