Frequently asked questions

What is the SSC photo size in pixels?

This tool defaults to 275×354 pixels for the photo and 140×60 pixels for the signature, both under roughly 50KB and 20KB respectively — figures gathered from published SSC exam guidance rather than one single official spec page. Some SSC exams capture your photo live via webcam or the mySSC app instead of an upload, so check which step your specific exam is asking for before relying on these numbers.

Is my photo or signature uploaded to a server?

No. All resizing, cropping, and compression happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API — your photo and signature are never uploaded, transmitted, or stored anywhere.

Why was my signature rejected on a previous SSC form?

The most common reason is writing the signature in block capital letters — SSC (like most Indian exam bodies) expects your normal running handwriting signed in black ink on white paper, not print-style capitals. A blurry scan or a signature that doesn't match your other documents can also cause rejection.

Does this guarantee my SSC application will be accepted?

No. This tool matches the technical spec — pixel dimensions and file size — as accurately as available guidance allows. It can't verify composition rules (framing, background, expression) or guarantee these numbers match the current notification for the specific SSC exam you're applying to.

Why would I change the default size?

SSC's exact requirements vary by exam (CGL, CHSL, MTS, and others) and can change between recruitment cycles. If your notification states a different pixel size or KB limit, change the fields here before uploading rather than assuming the defaults are correct for your exam.
