Frequently asked questions
What is the SSC CHSL photo size?
Aim for a 200×240 pixel photo saved as JPG, weighing 20 KB to 50 KB, shot against a plain white background.
What is the SSC CHSL signature size?
The signature should be 200×80 pixels and 10–20 KB in JPG. Write it on white paper with black or blue ink.
Is the SSC CHSL photo size different from SSC CGL?
They differ on pixels: CHSL wants 200×240 px while CGL wants 275×354 px, though both share the 20–50 KB range. Since SSC can update these, verify the current notification for each.
What happens if I use the wrong photo size for SSC CHSL?
An upload that breaks the KB cap or misses the pixel dimensions gets bounced by the portal. Bring it to exactly 200×240 px and under 50 KB with the tool, then retry.
Can I use the same photo for several SSC exams?
Reuse it only after checking it against each exam's own pixel and KB requirements. Because CGL and CHSL do not share the same dimensions, resize a fresh copy for every form.
What format does SSC CHSL accept for photos?
Like the other SSC papers, CHSL takes JPG/JPEG only. A PNG or HEIC image must be converted to JPG before uploading.
