Dear PR holders in US,
I'm a FSW, Outland applicant with CoPR. I did my soft landing a couple of months ago in Ontario and returned to Florida for my work after staying 3 weeks in Canada.

I received an email stating that my photo was rejected and I needed to mail in a new set of photos within 180 days to Case Processing Centre: in Sydney, Nova Scotia.

Keep in mind.. this is the same photo I submitted for my PR visa & CoPR!! So I don't really understand why it was accepted for PR Visa & CoPR if it would be rejected for the PR Card, there's no explanation in the letter on what aspect of the photo wasn't compliant. I am a bit confused honestly... My PR card was planned to be delivered to a friend's house.

- Is it possible to mail the new PR photo from the US to Nova Scotia? or would an international parcel raise a concern with IRCC that I am currently outland?
- Aside from that, the photo itself, does it have to be dated? Or a stamp of the Photographer's address is enough?


Thank you
