SqueezePDFCompress PDF for a mortgage applicationfree & private
A mortgage application asks for income proof, several months of bank statements, and photo ID, all uploaded through your lender's document portal, where large scans often fail. SqueezePDF compresses each file in your browser so it fits the portal's size limit. Because bank statements and financial records are highly sensitive, nothing is ever uploaded to us.

Meeting the lender portal size limit
Upload your PDF and this page opens on the Balanced quality preset (72 DPI), keeping the sharpest version that fits; check your lender's document portal and change the target to the precise size it specifies. A mortgage file involves many documents, so compress each bank statement, payslip, and ID one after another and download them all. Processing stays on your device and nothing is transmitted, so your financial information remains private.

Frequently asked questions
How do I compress a PDF for a mortgage application?+
Open this page, drop in your statement or income proof, and it compresses to the target size in your browser. Match the target to your lender's portal limit, then download the smaller PDF and upload it to your application.
What file size do mortgage lenders accept?+
Lender portals commonly cap uploads somewhere in the low megabytes per file, but limits differ between lenders. Use the exact figure shown on your lender's upload page rather than a general estimate, and set it as your target.
Can I compress multiple statements, and is it private?+
Yes. Compress each bank statement, payslip, and ID in turn and download them all. Everything is processed locally, so your financial documents are never uploaded and never leave your computer.
Will my bank statements stay readable?+
Yes. Text and vector content stay sharp and only embedded images are downsampled, so the figures on a scanned bank statement or payslip remain clear for an underwriter to review.
Is it free and is there a sign-up?+
It is completely free with no sign-up, no watermark, and no file limits, and it keeps working offline once loaded.
