Photo Issues

[vishrit 0]

We made a mistake and the pics for my fiance are not to required specs. Her pics have a dark background. Does anyone know how will this affect my case since I have already submitted the application? Will this deny my case?

Please help!

Thanks,

You might get an RFE for the correctly posed pics - thats not a denial - its just a request you provide more (or better) info.

Wait for THEM to contact YOU and see - if you contact before then your new pics may not meet up with your original file and you get an RFE anyways (the service centers store their files in WAREHOUSES due to volume, thats why a lot of paperwork goes walkies)

well the RFE will say it all whether it will effect or not

You WILL receive an RFE for the proper pictures. So prepare them in advance to avoid any delays. There have been reports of RFE for pictures that are printed on bad paper or that faded too fast.

Ditto. The back ground needs to be white.

Yeah, you will probably get an RFE like the others so just be prepared to get the right pics. This isn't a denial, it's easily fixable and you should be fine!

Sam,

What case - petition or visa application?

The consulates are typically more 'picky' than the USCIS, since the photo will be used to make the visa at the consulate. It just sits in the file with the USCIS.

But a dark rather than light background is a significant deviation from the specification.

In any event, pri answered your question the best.

Agree with Yodrak. Whilst I was the beneficiary and sent correct photos....hubby (USC) did not and we didnt get an RFE. Not to say one wont get an RFE.....one will just have to wait and see.

My fiances pics we actually on a blue background and we didn't have a problem at NSC. When time came for his packet, he did get the proper photos taken. Keep your fingers crossed!

Thank you all for your responses. The visa I have applied for is the K1 visa. I guess it is best to have the corrected ones at hand just in case I get an RFE.

Thanks again!

And remember to have more than 2 done and you'll need copies to take with you to the interview

Sorry about pulling old post.. but I'm just wondering if the OP ever got an RFE. Does someone out there know the OP and could tell me if he had? Yes, I have the same issue. The white background pictures are ready when RFE comes.
