SSC application forms accept a JPG photograph between 20 KB and 50 KB, about 3.5 × 4.5 cm. The new SSC portal also captures a live photo, but you still need a correctly sized photo for many SSC forms and documents.
How to use it
- Take a clear photo or scan (good light, plain background).
- Choose it here. The form preset is already selected; edit the numbers if your notice differs.
- Download the file, already named photo.jpg or signature.jpg, and upload it to the portal.
Questions
What is the SSC photo size?
A JPG of 20–50 KB, roughly 3.5 cm × 4.5 cm. Pixel dimensions quoted by guides vary, so check the notice for your exam.
What if my notification gives different numbers?
Edit the width, height, minimum and maximum KB fields. The result updates instantly.
Why is my file slightly bigger than the original?
Some portals reject files below a minimum size. If the compressed photo is too small, the tool adds harmless padding data so it meets the minimum. The picture is unchanged.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript, so your files never leave your device. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it keeps working.
