Directions on the form says:

"The photos should show a three-quarter frontal viewof the right side of your face, with your right earvisible and your head bare (unless you are wearing aheadress as required by a religious order of which youare a member).

The photos should be no larger than 2 by 2 inches.From the top of the head to just below the chin, theimage of your head should be about 1 and 1/4 inches.Using a pencil, lightly print your Alien RegistrationNumber (A#), if any, on the back of each photo."

I thought they went to straight on passport photos? Can I get some feedback from those who filed their AP with their adjustment of status. Did you use frontal or 3/4 photos?

Thanks.

The USCIS has issued new photo requirements for all petitions and applications.

The new photo requirements are for "full frontal" photographs in the same format that is currently required for passport photos.

The change from the previously required "three-quarter face position to a standard, full frontal face position" takes effect beginning August 2, 2004.

The press release clarifies that (1) "USCIS will accept both three-quarter and full color frontal photographs until September 1, 2004 after which only full frontal color will be accepted," and (2) "The application process of customers who have already submitted materials that include color photos with the three-quarter standard will not be affected by this change."

Both photo formats will be accepted until September 1, 2004.
