SSC applications ask for a scanned signature along with your photo. The rules below are what recent notices have used. Your exam’s notice on ssc.gov.in is final; check it before you apply.
| Rule | Common requirement |
|---|---|
| Format | JPG / JPEG |
| File size | 10–20 KB |
| Dimensions | About 4.0 × 2.0 cm (some notices: 6.0 × 2.0 cm); this page: 140 × 60 px |
| Ink | Black (or blue) on white paper |
| Style | Running hand; capital letters not accepted |
Make your SSC photo on SSC photo resize. Both files are processed on your device and never uploaded. The rules here were last checked on 5 November 2026; if your notice differs, type its numbers in KB size and the optional exact pixels boxes under KB size, and the studio will check the result for you.
After downloading, open the file’s details on your phone or computer (on Windows: right-click → Properties → Details; on Android: the file manager’s info button; on iPhone: the Files app’s info). You should see the same pixel size and a file size matching the badge. Then use the portal’s preview step: if the photo looks stretched or cut off there, go back, adjust the crop box and run again. Keep the downloaded file safe, because many portals ask for the same photo again at later stages, and your admit card will carry it.

Recent SSC notices ask for a JPG signature of 10–20 KB. Dimensions have been given as about 4×2 cm or 6×2 cm in different notices; this page uses 140×60 px. Check your notice.
No. SSC notices have said signatures in capital letters won't be accepted. Sign in your normal running hand.
Black ink on white paper is safest. A gel or ball pen gives a clean, dark line.
Crop tighter so the ink fills the image. Less empty paper means a sharper signature in the same 20 KB.
