Question about the photo

Hi all,

I have been selected by DV2019, but I’m not sure which the photo I used… If the photo is same as my passport (issued in 2016). Will it be disqualified in interview. I'm considering to apply for a new passport...

Does anyone have the same experience?
 
If the photo you used for your DV2019 application is the same photo used for a passport issued in 2016, then chances are you’d get disqualified. The time gap between 2016 and 2018 (when you submitted your entry) is well above the required 6 months.

I could be wrong, but I do remember the instructions reading “Do not submit an old photograph”. The consequences of this I’ve already mentioned above.
 
I'm assuming they want you to bring in a physical photo so considering the application was digital they probably expect a new one anyway. Needs to be within 6 months though.

Why would you use the same photo when the rules state specifically that the image must be less than 6 months old?
