Application / Regulation advice PAL Application - Photo With STICKER? on Back

I'm applying for my PAL. Just got proper photos taken. Now I am reading that I need to affix a sticker to the back of the photo with my name, my guarantor's name, and their signature. Do I seriously need to get a sticker made and then stick in on the back? Or can I just glue/tape it?

Label Instructions

  1. Cut the photo to fit the size requirements.
  2. Print your name and your guarantor's name on the sticker.
  3. Have your guarantor sign it and complete the Photo Guarantor section of your application.
  4. Affix the sticker to the back of your photo.
  5. Enclose the photograph with your application.

Do the online application my friend. I’ve known two people who’ve had massive delays from the paper form.

Why did they have delays..? Now I'm concerned.

I dunno 🤷🏼‍♀️ my friend and I applied at the same time, hers by paper, and mine online. Hers took like 6 months for some reason.

My coworker’s husband never got his back.

Meanwhile another friend who lives in my subdivision applied at same time as me online and ours came in the mail days apart.

This was about 2 years ago for reference.
