DS-160: photo dimensions are not correct. What should I do?

Upvote:7

If the photo is not suitable, than at the time you attend the consulate they will instruct you to provide a physical photo that meets the requirements. I've seen this occur for multiple people in the Sydney consulate - for each person they directed them to a nearby shop that could take the photo, and would not allow them to proceed with the application until they returned with the photo.

Given that you haven't done anything yet other than submit the DS-160, your options are to either :

  • Start the process again and submit a new DS-160, then use this DS-160 number when making your appointment. If you go this path there is no need to cancel/etc your existing DS-160. or
  • Stick with the current DS-160, and take 2 copies of a suitable photo with you to the interview. If they decide the photo submitted with the DS-160 is not suitable, then they will be able to use these photos instead.
