๐ NASBA Uniform CPA Examination Photo Upload Guidelines
Strict requirements enforced by State Boards of Accountancy and Prometric biometric testing centers.
Your photo is embedded into your NASBA profile and printed on your Notice to Schedule. Prometric proctors will visually compare this image with your primary unexpired government ID at check-in.
Eyeglasses cause glare and frame obstruction that trigger automated portal rejections. Remove glasses, headbands, and earbuds. Ensure even lighting with zero shadows behind your head.
The NASBA Candidate Portal rejects files exceeding 200 KB. SignResize automatically optimizes JPEG compression curves to maintain razor-sharp biometric facial clarity under the 200 KB threshold.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Authoritative answers regarding photo & signature specifications, file size rules, and official portal compliance.
What are the NASBA CPA Exam photo upload requirements?
NASBA requires candidates to submit a recent passport-style color photo: exactly 2ร2 inches (600ร600 pixels), taken within the past 6 months, saved in JPEG format with a file size strictly under 200 KB. The image must feature a plain white background, neutral facial expression, and your full head centered.
How does Prometric verify candidate photos on CPA Exam test day?
When you arrive at the Prometric testing facility for any CPA exam section (AUD, FAR, REG, or Discipline), proctors compare your live appearance and government ID against the photo transmitted via your NASBA Notice to Schedule (NTS). A clear, compliant photograph ensures seamless biometric check-in.
Are eyeglasses permitted in NASBA CPA exam photos?
No. In accordance with updated national biometric identification standards, eyeglasses must be removed for CPA candidate photos unless a documented medical exception signed by an ophthalmologist is provided.
Can I take my CPA exam candidate photo with a smartphone?
Yes. You can take a well-lit photo using a smartphone portrait mode against a wall, upload it to SignResize, center your face within the biometric oval guide, click 'Make Background Pure White', and download a compressed 600ร600 px JPEG under 200 KB.
Does SignResize store or log CPA candidate photos?
No. All cropping, resizing, background cleaning, and JPEG compression take place 100% client-side inside your browser canvas. No sensitive candidate images or personal identity data are transmitted to any remote server.
