Clarification needed on few questions

[CULLINAN]

Doing some research on the forum, your passport and settled status reference number is enough to prove it.

Thank you for looking for that info for me

Hello!
How do people manage to scan all of their passport and still be within 6MB limit?
I tried going grayscale, I tried going 150dpi (the minimum they ask for), and the lowest I got was 7.1MB. I'm concerned if it's too blurry if I go lower than 150dpi they recommend.

Maybe depends on the scanner? I scanned all mine in colour, lots of pages, and it was a very small size in the end anyway. Did you convert to PDF? I think in PDF you can make it smaller

If you can not contain the size under 6MB, make two or three files per passport. Does not matter.

I re-scanned the passport in greyscale and 150dpi (the minimum required) again, only selecting passport area to be scanned, pressing passport hard against the scanner. Got it to be 5,978,834 bytes (6 MB on disk) so just about! Not sure why so big in general though.
