Check

Ask the branch before you bring a file

Some stores refuse to print anything called a passport photo that they did not take themselves, and online 'same-day pickup' orders from other photo services have failed to reach the store. Ask the branch first, order our sheet as a plain 4 x 6 in print, and cut along the marks yourself.
