You can add a validation method for that

$.validator.addMethod("uploadFile", function (val, element) {
    var ext = $(element).val().split('.').pop().toLowerCase();
    var allow = new Array('bmp');
    var size = element.files[0].size;

    if (jQuery.inArray(ext, allow) == -1 || size > 1048576) {
        return false
    } else {
        return true
    }

}, "Invalid file");

And Use it like this -

rules: {
    image: {
       required: true,
       uploadFile:true
    }
}
