Request new photographs for PR Card after landing - add your case here

[yazan142]

Thats exactly what I said that download the form online fill it yourself and send photos so when you get photos request your envelop is already in queue. Send it atleast after 4 weeks of your PR card application. You will save about 2 weeks in later processing than.

The address is same and is for courier since international courier do not deliver to PO Box addresses. If you send to PO box you will not be able to track and know if it has been delivered. If you send to address i provided you will be able to track it and get signatures

You can't do this, as they ask you to enclose their request letter with the new photos, not enclosing the letter may even delay processing!

Yazan. Request letter is general printed template with photo specifications and it was said that this needs not included since it has no information on it. It only required to send photos with supplementary information form which has the information.

Anyway - without getting into an argument it is him to decided I just gave my opinion.

No - There were two letters included with my photo request. One was the actually letter giving me instructions on where to send the new photos and a second with the photo specifications. The first one is what needs to be sent with the photos.

Thanks guys for all of your valuable advises.

1- Did you include IMM-5455 supplementary forms? or just sent the photo's with a letter have instructions?

2- Which address was mentioned on letter and to which you have posted the photo's. I understand from blog that post's send on PO Box 4500 address cannot be tracked?

Its okay, but my friend received this letter, his name and UCI number both were printed on the letter, I agree that the letter content is general, however it is addressed to a specific person and highlights the UCI number as I mentioned.

1- Did you include IMM-5455 supplementary forms? or just sent the photo's with a letter have instructions? No...I'm not even sure of where this talk of supplementary form is coming from. Maybe other people have been asked to send it. There was nothing mentioned about that in the letter I got. It just said to return the photos with the request letter.


2- Which address was mentioned on letter and to which you have posted the photo's. I understand from blog that post's send on PO Box 4500 address cannot be tracked?
There was two addresses but i sent it to this one:

49 Dorchester Street
Sydney, NS
B1P 5Z2

I sent mine to the PO Box and had it tracked (Canada Post registered mail).

I called CIC today as last time I called they told me to call back today.

The lady I spoke with at first was quite 'abrupt' with me and said that there was no expected processing time for cases where photos were resubmitted and she can guarantee that mine would not have been processed yet (received May 27) as they are still processing photos received in February (!!!).

I was very polite with her and she became much nicer as the call went on. I asked about the travel document because I often am required to travel to the USA for work for short trips and she said my only option was to cross the border by car first.

Not the news I wanted as I travel so frequently.

I am afraid to say you spoke with someone who is giving you totally wrong information. CIC is definitely NOT that behind. I have seen on this forum people who re-submitted pictures in March and April have already received their PR. This is the problem with CIC that every single agent tells a different story. Honestly, I would not worry about what she said since she is giving inaccurate information based on no evidence what so ever.
Secondly, if your photos were received on May 27th then definitely your card hasn't been processed yet. I am assuming your card will arrive after 58 to 60 business days after photo resubmission hopefully.

Hello everyone, I sent my photos as received from CIC through email to be sent to below address:-

However, DHL through third party courier sent it to below address and a guy named Dan received it.

Immigration Canada

I don't know if this will be a problem. Anyone on the same boat please?

Doesnt matter. It is delivered to correct address. DHL doesnt deliver to P O box address so CIC has given this alternate address to send photos

Is there anyone here who resubmitted their pictures and they were received by someone called "Doug Stephenson"?

No, mine was "Dan Lewis".

I sent my picture on 18th April and received on 21st April. In my case it was received by Doug Stephenson too. Unfortunately since then it turned into a disappointing silence.

Is there anyone who submitted their photos around mid April and received their PR card?
