Gavin's G325A photo is horrible-he is gorgeous but he looks like a criminal-scary, very scary. I almost didn't recognize him. Amazing what stress does to the face :P

Lorelle, On the sheet we got "Immigrant Visa Photo Requirements" it says "The photos must be unmounted, full face photo, as described below, and must have been taken within the last six months."

I had to have one too for the I-130 and I made the guy take several so I could have a choice :lol:

8-12-2004 I moved to New Zealand(married my Kiwi in US 5/04)

1-12-2006 Received initial packet - It has I-130, I-864 & DS-230 Part 1, DS-2001 & tons of instructions.

Gathering paperwork that we don't have:

6-13-2006 - APPROVED!usaCa.gifnew_zeaC3.gif

6-14-2006 - VISA IN HAND D_SMIL112.gif

08-05-2006 -WE ARE HOME IN THE USA!!! flag12.gif

Aussiewench.....

The photos that you need for the interview are passport photos??? The reason I ask is because when I went and got my pics taken for my "passport" they asked if it was for "immigration" or a "passport". I understand the "immigration" pics are smaller. Which do I need for the interview??

Thanks in advance.

US immigration photos and US passport photos have identical requirements. This has been true for a couple of years now, but it wasn't always the case.

Size requirements for passport photos vary in different countries, so in some countries, native passport photos are different sized than US immigration photos.

The photos must be 2 inches by 2 inches. The full list of exact requirements that applies to both US passport and US immigration photos can be found here: http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/Photo%20Guide%2010-01-04.pdf
