Citizenship Photos
Hi all, can anyone suggest the cheapest place to get 4 pics taken for the Citizenship application....
Just called Blacks and they want approx $30+ for 4 pictures.
I am in Brampton/Mississauga area.
Thanks

Costco seems to be the cheapest or passport photos, so I'd try there. I had passport photos done there a few months ago and it was $6.99 for two photos.

Re: Citizenship Photos
I got mine at Blacks. Given the cost and hassle of the citizenship process, paying $25 or so for photos from a company that specialises in that kind of thing and should get it right first time seemed cheap in comparison.
I got the passport photos at Walmart, since they're the same as everyone else's passport photos, and it was on the way to the passport office.

Re: Citizenship Photos
Yeah having thought about it and the fact I don't want any hassle the $30 or so is probably worth it if they specialize in it.

Re: Citizenship Photos
Got our done at Costco Heartland. You have to double check them while you're there to make sure they are the right dimensions. We end up getting one re-done. No charge of course.
If you get asked for fingerprints which seems to be more often the case than not, Peel police used to do it but there is also a place near Hurontario which is the cheapest and most efficient. PM if you need details nearer the time

We went to the Superstore to do ours.
Very good and they have the special camera that makes sure the dimensions are correct. We did a 3 week old baby for passport photos there and they were great.
Cost was about $10 for 2 pictures
