Ok as someone who works in an immigration firm and does Canadian passport applications on the regular (even tho it is rediculous to pay a lawyer for a passport) our clients pay us because their application would be rejected otherwise. The photos have to be very specific. The reason to charge 17$ for a photo is that ur paying for it to be done right. The issue is that they very often are not done right at cvs or Walgreens so the cost is rediculous. But, as an example, those photos would obviously be rejected and u wouldn’t know until you submit it. U can save a lot of money by just reading the specifications and doing it yourself. However, if u don’t match the specifications you will have wasted time and money and end up paying someone to do it

It's done by someone who is tought how to take a proper pass photo, who has resolution in the cam high enough to satisfy the pass office, stamped with date stamp instead of hand written, stamped with a location stamp with full address proving this photo was not just taken by any photographer it was taken by a professional, and has a proper line and space for a gurantor signature. Idk about you but waiting 10 days for your passport is alot, and I would pay the extra to save sometime in the chance it gets rejected. what makes this extra is the fact that you don't need any of that really, you can do it by yourself but some people want the extra reassurance that this passport phot IS going to work out. it's like having a 50% chance or lower but having the option to spend 20 and increase it by 50%. If you have an old phone then the resolution ain't satisfactory I can promise that and instead of paying a photographer 10$ to quick take this photo, you pay the 10 extra get yours done and get insurance it will get accepted with refunds and retakes if it gets rejected which it shouldn't from a legitimate business.

We have a special 2x2 cutter that we use because if it's not perfectly 2x2, your photo will get rejected. This is a useful tip for other id photos that dont have to have those specific requirements like the passport photo. We do other id photos that are 17$ but they have less restrictions so ill actually tell people to do exactly this. Just take a picture at our stores white background and then print it off on a 4x6 and cut it up.

Quick tip for those that don’t know, if you pay for a AAA membership (gold and above I believe) you get a certain amount of free passport photos per year.

I went to my local city Administration office and had it done and I didn't have to screw around with the internet. A lot of the other stuff you talk about is good but this one is plus trouble 4 old people😂

A real scam I had in China was they said my background wasn’t white enough (it was white) and I had to go take a photo downstairs and pay for it. It didn’t look different 😒

Yeah, I just took my own as well. The head size Hass to be a specific size for the passport photo so I just got a white blanket in the background and took about five different photos from different camera links. Cost me $1.50 to print everything and one of the photos worked.

It's 1000% a scam because they can. I work at Walgreens. It takes the same amount of ink and paper to print two passport photos as it takes to print one 4x6. I think they're mainly charging for the labor? Bc we have to take the picture, then run it through software to see if it matches the criteria, then MANUALLY white out the background with a paint brush on the antique software, then print and cut it out. Which admittedly sounds like a lot but material wise it's the same cost as a 4x6 and it's not like they're using that $16.99 to pay me anymore money🤷♂️

Don’t do this. Department of State will look for literally any reason to deny your passport application. Just pay the money at a place that has people professionally trained to do it. Saving $17 is not worth the headache of having a passport denied
