Hi Sharonuk,
May I ask when You sent them off to heyes - and was it the new online form after 23rd November? I'M getting worried now as we sent NORMAL size passport photos with the older online application

Hi Sydney
we made our own photos here:
http://idphoto4you.com/
It's easy to use and best of all free
Sent everything off yesterday, so it's now in the lap of the gods (VFS
)
Including making photos, completing on line applications and payment, it took 3 hours for two of us. Fortunately I'd booked a days leave to allow for this.

Hi ssharon , I think I am correct in saying that the standard specification for a UK passport is 45 mm x 35mm , now , before their is a wave of suicides amongst members of this BB , maybe you could provide some "evidence" to support your claim , re 50mm x 50mm being the "new" requirement .
I have made the High Commission aware of this and also pointed out that the only way a 2" x 2" picture could be achieved was by cutting an immage to size with scissors or a guillotine.
It was almost a days work completing the form for my wife and myself. If you want to pay on line click on the righthand tab,
Appointments/payments.
The completed form appears for printing or saving.Once done if you come out of that screen the payment form appears, and good luck with the rest as it keeps defaulting to the London address.

Mike , I am getting a "security " warning re the web site , so didnt , open up the link , but if this is the case 
So, my understanding on that link is that for tourist visas for most of us, there is no change
Here is the link to the VFS website where it states the new size of photo required.

Not really bothered re photos as some photo booths give a choice of size and format etc,(I have in the past taken my own at home and printed them myself with no problems) but certainly a problem for anyone not on line or computer literate if all applications have to be made, or downloaded, on line.
Also noticed a bit further down re anyone without referees in india, not sure if this is a change or not, having always used the travel company and hotel as referees.
Indian tourist board motto (perhaps!)
"why make life difficult, when with a bit of extra effort you could make it impossible?"
