IBPS validates photos automatically and the error message just says "invalid file" with no further detail. Most rejections happen for three reasons: file over 50KB, dimensions below 200×230 pixels, or the signature in portrait format when IBPS needs landscape (800×300 pixels). The same photo compressed to 20KB works for IBPS PO, Clerk, RRB Officer, and RRB Clerk — all use identical specs. Unlike SBI which occasionally changes its portal, IBPS has kept these specifications consistent for several years. Target 20KB for the photo. The signature tab on this page is set to the correct landscape format.
