Sheet conveying apparatus, image forming apparatus and method of controlling a sheet conveying apparatus

An image forming apparatus comprising:

• an image forming portion that forms an image on a sheet;
• a conveyance portion configured to convey the sheet on which the image is formed by the image forming portion along a conveyance path;
• a skew-feed correction member positioned in the conveyance path such that a leading edge of the sheet conveyed by the conveyance portion contacts the skew-feed correction member to correct a skew-feed of the sheet;
• a receiving portion configured to receive information indicative of a width of the conveyed sheet, the width being in a direction orthogonal to a sheet conveyance direction;
• and
• a control portion configured to adjust a skew-correction conveyance amount of the conveyance portion applied to correct the skew-feed of the sheet by the skew-feed correction member, wherein the skew-correction conveyance amount is adjusted on information which the receiving portion received such that the skew-correction conveyance amount is set to be larger for a sheet of smaller width compared to a sheet of greater width.
