SSC CHSL 2026 Photo Size & Upload Guidelines

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) uses standard dimensions across its major exams. Here is the exact breakdown for SSC CHSL 2026, including common rejection pitfalls.

SSC CHSL 2026 Specifications

The SSC CHSL specifications are identical to the SSC CGL specifications[cite: 11].

⚠️ The "No Spectacles" Rule: SSC strictly forbids wearing spectacles, caps, or masks in your uploaded photograph[cite: 11]. Even if you wear prescription glasses daily, you must remove them for your application photo. Failure to do so will result in an automatic rejection.

Background Color Rule

SSC requires a plain white or light-coloured background[cite: 11]. Photos taken outdoors or against heavily textured walls are frequently rejected. If your photo has a non-white background, you can fix it prior to compression using a background removal tool[cite: 14].

How to Resize SSC CHSL Files

  1. Navigate to the ExamReady Photo Resizer.
  2. Select the built-in SSC 200×230 preset.
  3. Upload your passport photo. The resizer calculates the perfect dimensions and compresses it precisely between 20 KB and 50 KB[cite: 11].
  4. Download the file and repeat the process for your signature using the SSC 140x60 preset.
