Unable to upload infant's photo and thumbprint image for OCI (Overseas citizenship of India) - (please resist your temptation of throwing an Oracle hiring infants joke) Website complains "Format of Applicant Image is not valid". I have tried jpeg, jpg. Size of both the images is under 500kb as required. Did anyone run into this? How did you manage to fix this?
How was the picture taken? - phone, point and shoot camera or dslr? Was it taken indoor? Is there enough exposure? How did you crop the image?
If taking with a phone, take the picture outdoor. Use epassportphoto.com to crop the photo
Took the photo at Walgreens, then resized it using Mac preview to 8 in * 8 in. Do you remember what size you uploaded the image with? Don't want to reduce the size too much because then the photo becomes blurry

This worked, had to reduce the size. Original size was ~250kb which was still under the 500kb limit but the upload was failing, not sure why
We ran into similar issue. Had to resize them.
What size did you go for? I am choosing 8 in * 8 in for the photo and 9 in * 3 in for the thumb impression. With a resolution of 72 pixels/inch, these dimensions fall within their range.
You resized your kid's thumb?
