Frequently asked questions
What size is a USCIS photo?
2x2 inches (51x51 mm) square — the same as the US passport photo standard. Head height must be 1 to 1-3/8 inches (25–35 mm) from chin to crown on a plain white background. This tool produces exactly that.
Is the USCIS photo the same as a passport photo?
Yes. USCIS (Form I-485, green card, EAD, work permit) and the Department of State both use the 2x2 inch standard, so one photo works for both.
How do I check my photo meets USCIS requirements?
Run it through our free passport photo validator first — it checks size, head height, eye position, background and format in seconds. Then use this tool to resize it to a perfect 2x2.
How many pixels should a USCIS 2x2 photo be?
For digital submission use 600x600 to 1200x1200 pixels in JPEG format. This tool outputs 1200x1200 at 600 DPI, which also prints perfectly at 2x2.
