Mine got to "the additional documents you provided have been uploaded" when they requested the new photos (it was "are being reviewed" before). I sent the photos on September 13th, and they received them on Sep 15. Today my application turned to "Approved", but the review of document status stays as "uploaded".

So here's my timeline:

Landed: July 19th
Photo re-take request: September 12th
Photos arrived in NS: September 15th
Application approved: October 31st

I wonder how long it's going to take to arrive in Montreal. I had to leave Canada to finish some business in my home country, and it's going to a mailbox I hired at UPS. I hope it arrives fast and to the right address...
Congrats!!!
So the Documents section status then doesn't show same status for all. I have my PR card for last 2 months and even today the Document section shows "being reviewed" :)

I landed on September 23, I'm from Visa-exempt country. Do you guys think I'm gonna get the new photo request? :confused:
As far as I can tell, it doesn't matter where you're from. If the photos don't match the specification, they will request new ones. Period.

My case is that the face was 2 or 3mm larger than it was supposed to be. It was acceptable to issue the COPR, but not to make the card. So they requested the photo re-take.

I guess, if you are not requested to resend photos, the Document section will always shows "being reviewed". But if you are requested to resend photos, then the Document section will changed to "uploaded", as they may have uploaded and replaced the photos with the new ones we sent. Thats my theory though.. :)

I don’t think thats the only reason for document section to be “uploaded”. I landed on Sep 16 my doc status changed to “uploaded” on 12 Oct. No photos have been requested yet so can’t exactly What this status means. Even called and they said nothing required from me. Lets see how it goes.

Hi, my daughter and I got the PR card. My wife also landed with us, but she is yet to receive her PR card. I called CIC yesterday and the agent said that there is a note on 16th October that they need a new photo for my wife and he informed that the email was not sent out from their end. He took a note to his back office, to send the email from their end with details as soon as possible and asked me to check my wife's email at regular intervals. We haven't received email yet and really concerned as we all took photo from the same place.

Is this normal.. why is CIC waiting for 15+ days to send email regarding the photo, if they need a new one?
