Step 1: Have both your Chosen ID Photo and Photo of your Government Issued ID ready

Guidelines and Tips for Taking Your Photo, please follow these guidelines:

• Be sure that photos are not in “live” mode.
• Photos that are too big will display a message stating the photo cannot be greater than 2MB, please crop the photo until it is just around your face and re-submit.
