Important Dates & Fees

Step-by-step: How to apply online

1. Read the official notification PDF first.

   Before filling any form, download and read the full notification published by Staff Selection Commission. It carries the binding eligibility criteria, age-relaxation table, fee structure, exam pattern, and the syllabus. The detailed page above is a clean summary — the PDF is the legal document.

2. Confirm you meet eligibility.

   Check your age (as on the cut-off date stated in the notification), educational qualification, and category-specific reservations. Many candidates fill the form and lose the fee because their qualification did not match exactly.

3. Keep documents ready before opening the form.

   Scanned passport-size photo (recent, white background), signature, left-thumb impression, 10th certificate, qualifying degree, caste/EWS/PwD certificate if applicable, and a valid photo ID (Aadhaar / PAN / Voter ID). Use 100% scale and the file-size limits the portal specifies.

4. Open the official application portal.

   Use only the official application URL: ssc.nic.in. Never apply through a Telegram / WhatsApp forwarded link — those are scams.

5. Register, then log in.

   Most portals require a one-time registration with your name, mobile, email and a password. Save the registration number — you will need it for every future login, admit-card download and result check.

6. Fill the form carefully.

   Personal details, educational qualification, communication address, category, and preferences. Cross-check each field. After final submission, most portals lock the form and corrections cost an extra fee.

7. Pay the application fee online.

   Use UPI, net-banking, debit / credit card. Keep the transaction receipt; some portals require you to upload the receipt before downloading the admit card.

8. Submit & save the confirmation.

   Submit the form well before 23 May 2026. Save the final PDF acknowledgement and the registration number. Last-day submissions frequently fail because of portal overload.
