50x70 mm Photo Maker: Free Online Tool
50 x 70 mm (2 x 2¾ inches) is the Canadian size. IRCC uses it for printed passport, PR card and citizenship photos, with the head 31 to 36 mm from chin to crown.
JPG, PNG or WebP · you can also paste (Ctrl+V)
At 300 DPI it is 591 x 827 pixels. Canadian digital uploads often need more pixels than that (the PR card, for example, asks for at least 715 x 1000), so use the document's own tool for uploads.
IRCC asks for printed photos to be professionally printed on high-quality photo paper; home prints on heavyweight paper are not accepted for the PR card.
