There are softwares and websites available online which can help you edit your photos to exact specifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should remember that editing is complex as the final edited image should print to exact measurements of 2 inch x 2 inch on paper. The image&#8217;s DPI (dots per inch) also matter as they control the quality of the final printed output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>USCIS requires the image to be high resolution which can be attained if you click the image by your <a rel=\"nofollow noindex sponsored nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Amazon iPhone Max\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2VYbUS8\" data-linkid=\"169856\" data-nojs=\"1\" data-shortcode=\"true\">iPhone<\/a> and then edit it to at least 300 DPI.
