Stand about 50 cm away from the wall. This will help avoid harsh shadows behind your back and keep the details in the photo clear.

Face position

Green Card Photo Requirements (USCIS)

USCIS requires two identical color photos, each measuring exactly 2×2 inches (51×51 mm), for nearly every Green Card application — Adjustment of Status (I-485), Family-Based Petitions (I-130), Green Card Renewal (I-90), Re-entry Permit (I-131) and Employment Authorization (I-765). The specifications mirror the U.S. State Department passport photo standard.

Size and Print Specifications

  • Print size: 2×2 inches (51×51 mm) — exact, no margin variation
  • Quantity: 2 identical prints per application
  • Background: plain white or off-white, no patterns or shadows
  • Head height (chin to crown): 1 to 1⅜ inches (25–35 mm)
  • Eye height from bottom: 1⅛ to 1⅜ inches
  • Color, sharp focus, photo-quality paper
  • Taken within the last 30 days of submission (USCIS is stricter than State Dept's 6-month rule)

How to Label Your Green Card Photos

USCIS requires you to lightly write your A-Number (Alien Registration Number) and full name on the back of each photo using pencil or felt-tip pen — never ballpoint, which can imprint through and damage the image. If you don't have an A-Number yet, write your full name and date of birth.

Photos Required by USCIS Form

  • Form I-485 (Adjustment of Status): 2 photos
  • Form I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative): 2 photos for each spouse if applicable
  • Form I-90 (Renew/Replace Green Card): 2 photos
  • Form I-131 (Re-entry Permit / Advance Parole): 2 photos
  • Form I-765 (Employment Authorization): 2 photos
  • Form N-400 (Naturalization): 2 photos

How to Make a Green Card Photo at Home

  1. Stand against a plain white wall in soft, even daylight.
  2. Take a selfie or use a self-timer at eye level. Neutral expression, both eyes open.
  3. Upload to Photo-Visa.Online and select Green Card Photo.
  4. Receive a print-ready file with 2 identical 2×2 in photos on a 4×6 in sheet — print at any 1-hour photo lab (CVS, Walgreens, Costco) or at home on photo paper.

Common USCIS Photo Rejections

USCIS reviewers reject Green Card photos for: incorrect size (must be exactly 2×2 in), shadows on background, glasses, head tilted, photo over 30 days old, inkjet print on regular paper, or wrong proportion of head in frame. Photo-Visa.Online auto-validates each of these.
