Scope lock: Canada ID / Licence is an identity / residence-style document page, kept separate from passport and licence URLs.

This article is scoped to Canada ID / Licence as a Canada identity / residence-style photo (50 × 70 mm, White), kept separate from passport and licence pages.
Canadian passport prints are often 50 × 70 mm. Canada ID / Licence here is 50 × 70 mm — a common dual-citizen mistake is uploading the Canadian strip unchanged.
Take a sharp indoor frame, keep Canada ID / Licence selected, and let FotoPass set 50 × 70 mm on White for Canada ID intake.
If you arrived from a passport or licence search, confirm the selector — wrong-category crops are a common registry refusal.

Digital ID filings usually want JPEG near 50 × 70 mm. Counter applications may need a physical print — finish the biometric crop before you compress.
Reread the Canada identity-document checklist on filing day.
