Just returned from my annual visit to immigration CW . Although this is my third successful extension on OA , always a stressful experience regardless of having every document you think you need. It amazes me that although I submit the same documents every year they scrutinize as if it’s the first time they’ve ever seen such documents; talking primarily a financial records; I submit by income so a bit more complicated ; interesting that this time I was instructed to sign an information page so that I could have a picture taken with it ; it’s the page that lists the various financial requirements. Anyway thank you for those on the site particularly TD and BH your advice and info is invaluable 🙏

They mention a new requirement to sign a page documenting financial requirements for a photo. The comments suggest that this is a common procedure to reinforce awareness of the requirements for future extensions.

thanx for the update. They've been having people hold up the financial requirement form you sign for a good long while now and taking your picture.

That's so next year you can't tell them "I didn't know the requirements were xxx or yyy" 😛
