Do I need to physically crop my passport photo?

2X2 is the size of the whole thing or paper. For exact measurements of the image itself, see:

The exact rules read "Photo should be 2”x2” (51 x 51 mm) with the head centered and sized between 1” and 1.4” (25 and 35 mm)."

This: https://travel.state.gov/content/passports/en/passports/photos/photo-examples.html

Shows multiple examples of OK and not OK photos. I see no examples where a 2x2 photo on a larger media is OK. We personally cut our photos 2 x 2 and have never had an issue (very straight/even with a photo cutter)
