      How to use it

      1. Pick the portal. The size limit fills in from its official help page; change it if your upload field says less.
      2. Add every page of one document: photos, scans or PDFs. Reorder or remove pages and type the file name.
      3. Make the PDF, check that the pages read well, download it, then press Next document.

      Worth knowing

      • IRCC upload fields take one file each, so every page of a document has to be in one file. This tool makes exactly that.
      • IRCC suggests 96 or 150 DPI for documents made from images. Pages here are drawn at 150 DPI or less, and the result says which.
      • USCIS asks for a full English translation, certified by the translator, with any document in another language. Upload the original and the translation as the form asks.
      • Name each file after what is in it, for example Lastname_Firstname_Passport. Spaces and symbols are swapped for underscores.
      • MB here means 1,000,000 bytes, the stricter reading, so the file fits either way.

      Questions

      What is the IRCC upload size limit?

      It depends on the account: 4 MB per file for the IRCC secure account, online citizenship, asylum and Permanent Residence portals, and 5 MB for the IRCC Portal. IRCC adds that some fields allow as little as 2 MB.

      What is the USCIS file size limit for online filing?

      USCIS says each file must be 12 MB or less, in PDF, JPG or JPEG (TIFF for some forms), without a password.

      Can I mix photos and PDFs?

      Yes. Add phone photos, scans and PDFs in any order; each PDF page becomes a page of the result.

      Is the text still searchable?

      No. Pages are saved as images to reach the size, which is fine for scans, IDs and certificates.
