The Strict 2x2 Government Requirement

If you are applying for a US Passport, a Diversity Visa, or a Green Card, the government strictly mandates a 2x2 inch photo. Your head must be centered, and the image must be a perfect square. If you upload a standard portrait photo, the legacy government portals will reject it or warp your face. Use our cropper to perfectly frame your face into a 2x2 square and compress it to the exact government file size limits.
