SSC (Staff Selection Commission) Photo & Signature Size
Current 2026 SSC applications capture the candidate's photograph live and do not use a pre-existing photo upload. The stored 20–50 KB photo target is compatibility-only, not a current SSC requirement. The current notice specifies a JPEG/JPG signature of 10–20 KB at about 6.0×2.0 cm; it publishes no photo or signature pixel dimensions, photo aspect ratio, DPI, or name/date rule. Confirm the current exam notice before using the compatibility photo output.

About this exam
The current SSC application module captures a live photograph from the candidate's computer or mobile camera. A pre-existing photograph is not uploaded. The signature remains a separate JPEG/JPG upload; confirm the current notice for the specific SSC examination before preparing files.

SSC captures the photo live — the signature is the file you prepare
Current SSC applications capture the photograph live through the portal's camera, so there is no pre-existing photo file to upload. The signature is the upload to prepare: 10–20 KB, JPG, on plain white paper. The 20–50 KB photo figure stored here is a compatibility target, not a current SSC upload requirement — set up good light and a plain background before you open the form.
SSC-specific application note
SSC uses these files across recruitments including CGL, CHSL, MTS, GD Constable, Stenographer and Junior Engineer through its One-Time Registration flow. The current notice publishes no name-and-date rule for the image, so no digital name/date strip is needed.
Why SSC uploads get rejected
- File size does not match the current application's displayed range.
- File format differs from the current application's accepted formats.
- Signature does not match the published canvas or aspect ratio.
- Signature is unclear or includes excess paper around the writing.
- Photo is blurry or too low-contrast to review clearly.
Specs can change between notification cycles — always confirm the current limit on the official portal before submitting.

Frequently asked questions
What is the photo size for the SSC (Staff Selection Commission) application?
The current stored instructions describe a live-photograph step rather than an ordinary prepared-photo upload. The 20–50 KB value shown by this tool is a compatibility target, not a current live-photo requirement. Follow the active form's capture instructions.
What is the signature size for SSC (Staff Selection Commission)?
The stored signature target is 10–20 KB, in JPEG / JPG format. Follow the current notice's ink and paper instructions, then upload it here to clean and resize it.
How does the SSC (Staff Selection Commission) live-photo step work?
Complete the live-photo step inside the application and follow its on-screen instructions for camera position, lighting and framing. The compatibility photo target shown by this tool does not replace that step. This tool cannot perform or validate the authority's live capture.
Why do SSC (Staff Selection Commission) photos and signatures get rejected?
For a live photograph, follow the capture screen's lighting, framing and background instructions. A separate signature can still fail when it falls outside 10–20 KB, uses an unsupported format, is faint, or includes the paper edge. This tool cannot validate the authority's live-photo step.
Is this SSC (Staff Selection Commission) resizer free and private?
Yes — free, no watermark, no sign-up, and your photo never leaves your device. All processing happens in your browser.
Where can I confirm the official SSC (Staff Selection Commission) requirements?
Always verify the current limits on the official source (SSC Combined Hindi Translators Examination 2026 notice, paragraphs 8.4–8.7) before submitting, as requirements can change between notification cycles.
