Photo Question

[diath 6]

We are getting everything ready for sending out the I-130 Petition. Now I have a question about the photo's for the petition.

This is probably a stupid question but am I allowed to leave my earrings in and also my nose piercing? Do have put my hair behind the ears? Am I allowed to smile?

We are getting everything ready for sending out the I-130 Petition. Now I have a question about the photo's for the petition.

This is probably a stupid question but am I allowed to leave my earrings in and also my nose piercing? Do have put my hair behind the ears? Am I allowed to smile?

From packet 3 which I received:

Immigrant Visa (IV) Front View Photo Specifications

 All immigrant visa applicants at the U.S. Embassy Seoul must submit 2 photographs that:

Are printed on a white background without borders. Colored or patterned backgrounds are

unacceptable

head centered in the frame and applicant's ears exposed

 Measure 50 mm square. The applicant's head (measured from top of the hair to the bottom of the

chin) must measure 25 mm to 35 mm; the applicant's eye level must be 28 mm to 35 mm from

the bottom of the photo

Sorry, I have no idea about jewelry.

You can leave your piercings in- I put my hair behind my ears and kept a pleasant, neutral expression.

The first is a travel.state.gov link to acceptable photo examples:
