Lol 😂 Much confusion. Might be prudent to send the Montréal Consulate an email to confirm if an oversight on their part. Another person here on VisaJourney posted they were requested to send in the passport which the Consulate had kept at the interview!
Someone else on this forum received the proceed notification email (request for passport, etc) from the Consulate directly, not the Yatri support system
Consider this: Neither email (received two/ read below) we received from the “Yatri” support system requested the 2 Passport pics; however, the Consulate itself replied to a Congressional Inquiry two days after we received the support system email asking for the requirements to proceed, and that response DID mention the 2 passport pics (along with passport, updated medical, and RCMP Cert)
We also received two separate “Yatri” emails (one did not contain the link to arrange for courier delivery), so errors are common. It seems to me the communication lines between the “support system” generating these approval/documents request emails and the Consulate can be flawed
