A guarantor is a person who signs the photos to prove that it is you in the photos. You have to have known the guarantor for at least TWO years to have them sign. The guarantor has to be from the list below
Eligible guarantors for Canadians residing OUTSIDE Canada and the United States
Your guarantor must:
Have known you personally for at least two years.
Be included in one of the following groups:
Dentist
Judge
Lawyer
Magistrate
Medical doctor
Notary public
Police officer
Signing officer of a bank
Mayor

Here is what the letter says.
I don´t think that anybody must sign it now, just must allow
it to be signed later.
"
? be on photographic paper that has a backing which accepts and retains the date and the guarantor?s signature without smearing. Photos without this backing are not acceptable;
? bear the date the photo was taken (not the date the photo was printed) directly on the back of one print (stick-on labels are not acceptable)
"

All passport photos must have a signature of a guarantor... if you are IN Canada or OUT of Canada they still need a guarantor.
You said in the first post that they need a guarantor and then you said in the second post you dont think they need a signature. now but later....when do you suppose later would be?
The guarantor´s signature is used to prove to Canada that the photo is actually you.....they must sign the photo before it is sent. I have had 4 passports and all of them needed guarantors....I had to find one when I was overseas....luckily I had a student who was a doctor.
Good luck

it did say: "...the date and the guarantor?s signature without smearing. Photos without this backing are not acceptable" So signature is a must.

Come on guys I do not think your dentist, mayor or your lawyer has to sign the pics , put a little of common sense.
Here in Canada the photoshop stamp the pics on the back and the person who took them signs, that is enough prove you are the person in the pictures, do not complicate.
Hope it helps

We are not complicating things.....
If they ask for a guarantor´s signature, you NEED it!
Without it, the photos will be sent back!
If they don´t specifically ask for a guarantor´s signature, you do not need it.
You must read and follow ALL instructions carefully.
By being absolutely sure about what is needed and what is not, will save you time and frustration!
Good luck!

There may be some additional people that can act as guarantor. Clergy is one.
every immigration application has a GUIDE available. You can download it absolutely free off the internet. It goes question by question. If there are embassy specific requirement, you download that too. READ THEM.
If you are still stuck you can go to the operational manuals published online by CIC that tell you exactly what the immigration officer does with your application. (if a -then B if b then C).
If you are still lost, check CIC´s FAQ´s. check more than one embassy. sometimes the wording is easier to understand at one site over another.
If you are still lost... Google your question. sometimes it pops up in the strangest places. you may or may not get an answer but it is worth a look.
If you are still lost... there are plenty of patient and kind folks on this forum willing to help out if they can.
The letters of request are usually specific. Do exactly as they ask. Nothing less.
