Dear Friends,

As CDD my visa officer asked me to provide copies of Bachelor and Master degrees along with MR
Should i provide just photocopies of degrees or attested copies
in case of attested copies so where should i attest copies from

1) higher education
2) from my university
3) notary public or any where

Please offer your comments.
Dear Sheeno

Get these attested from HEC , HEC Islamabad will attest these same day .
Please save your time , as LVO will forward copies to HEC for verification , prior verification will save your time

Stay Blessed

Dear All,

As-Salaam-Alaikum. Can someone let me know what about the ladies who do hijab have to do about their pictures for canadian immigration? Will their pictures with hijab be accepted? I am talking about ladies who use head scarf and not the full face cover hijab.

Thanks & regards,

Asim
Dear Asim

You can find pictures guide lines on cic web page

Stay Blessed - Ameen

Dear msaeed,

I just checked the website http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/photospecs-cit.asp and following is the extract from it:

Specifications•The photographs must be identical and taken within the last six months. They may be either black and white or colour.
•The photographs must be clear, well defined and taken against a plain white or light-coloured background.
•If the photographs are digital, they must not be altered in any way.
•Your face must be square to the camera with a neutral expression, neither frowning nor smiling, and with your mouth closed.
•You may wear non-tinted prescription glasses as long as your eyes are clearly visible. Make sure that the frame does not cover any part of your eyes. Sunglasses are not acceptable.
•A hairpiece or other cosmetic accessory is acceptable if it does not disguise your normal appearance.
•If you must wear a head covering for religious reasons, make sure your full facial features are not obscured.

So, it means that head covering is allowed. Anyways, thanks for guiding me to cic website. I totally forgot that I can check this at their website.

You too stay blessed brother.....

I think they have defined rule such that they decide on a case to case basis and visa allocation.

Dear Sheeno1,

You donot need to send any attested copies. Only send photocopies.
I only send them the photocopies and got MR after that.

If they specifically mentioned it then attest it.

Dear - if you are asking for new application to CIC then bio page is enough and any other page which contains an amendment to your profile data
