Channel ceiling
The same help table lists 5 MB for the newer IRCC Portal; Express Entry e-APRs are submitted through the secure account at 4 MB.
How we handle it: UploadPrep enforces the 4 MB secure-account limit that governs this program.
Accepted format subset
IRCC also accepts .png, .doc and .tiff uploads here.
How we handle it: UploadPrep prepares PDF or JPEG, the two formats this pipeline can produce correctly.
