Photographs

Appointment NVC Processing

The applicant and each family member who will accompany the applicant to the United States will need to submit two front-view color photographs with a white background.

Guidelines

The photographs must be square measuring 2 inches x 2 inches (5 cm x 5 cm).

Head should be positioned directly facing the camera

Photographs should capture from slightly above top of hair to middle of chest

Eyes should be open and looking at the camera

Eyeglasses should be worn if normally used by the subject

Glare on eyeglasses can usually be avoided with a slight upward or downward tilt of the head

Background should be white or off-white

Include headpieces if worn daily for religious purposes; they should not obscure or cause shadows on the eyes or any other part of the face
