For those of you who upload the documents through CEAC, at the photograph part: Do I need to upload a photograph of the petitioner plus one of the beneficiary? Can I use the same passport style pictures I sent to USCIS phase? Does the size of the pics have to be less than 2MB? Were did you guys find information on NVC website about this part? I reviewed all the steps and couldnt find anything :(

Good luck submitting everything! DS260 application takes a long time, took us almost 3 hours because my husband has been to several different educational institutions. I really hope we get to the finish line soon!

There is no specific information that I found either but I've seen it done 2 ways with no issues. Some people uploaded a passport size picture and others just uploaded a signed note saying they will bring the photos to the interview. 

 

My husband had emailed me passport size pictures for the USCIS application. I still had those saved on my computer so I just uploaded one of them. I do think that if you upload a picture, it still needs to be less than 2 MB.

@P n S @MahiAS @NilsaAnil21 Hope we all get Case complete soon!  It would have been a devastating wait without the support of others on VJ.

I really hope so!! I’d be ecstatic if it’s within the next week and interviews soon after!
