The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has officially announced the opening of the SSC GD Constable Correction Window 2026 for all registered candidates. If you made any mistakes while filling out your application form for the 45,000+ vacancies in Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), NIA, SSF, and Rifleman in Assam Rifles, this is your last chance to fix them.

According to the official notice, the correction window will remain open for only three days. No modification requests will be accepted after the deadline, and SSC will not respond to any correspondence about corrections once the window closes. This guide explains the complete correction process, applicable fees, editable fields, common mistakes, and how to ensure your form is accurate for the upcoming Computer Based Examination (CBE).

Candidates interested in opportunities at the Maharashtra level should also keep an eye on updates like the MPSC Rajyaseva 2026 Notification for state administrative services.

Correction Fees & Charges

SSC charges a fee for each correction attempt to discourage unnecessary edits. Candidates are allowed only two correction attempts.

No further modifications are allowed after the second submission. Ensure all details are perfect before final submission.

Which Details Can Be Modified?

SSC allows candidates to change most of the details entered during registration and application submission. Candidates must ensure that any updated information matches their official documents (like Class 10 Marksheet).

• Name, Father’s Name, Mother’s Name (as per Class 10 certificate)
• Date of Birth
• Category (General, OBC, SC, ST, EWS)
• Post Preferences (CAPF force order)
• Educational qualification (Class 10 marks)
• Exam centre preferences
• Photograph and signature

Common Mistakes to Avoid (Reasons for Rejection)

Applications are frequently rejected due to simple errors. Pay attention to the following areas:

Photograph Errors

Do not upload selfies, side-profile photos, or images with caps, hats, or sunglasses. Upload a recent passport-size colour photo with a plain background. The image size should be between 20KB and 50KB.

Signature Issues

The signature must be on white paper using black ink. The file size should be between 10KB and 20KB. Illegible or blurred signatures can lead to rejection at later stages.

Wrong Post Preference

Once the final result is declared, force allocation is strictly based on merit and preference order. Preferences cannot be changed later.
General guidance:
– Prefer CISF or SSF for relatively stable and urban postings.
– Prefer BSF or CRPF for field and border duties.

SSC GD 2026 Exam Pattern (Revised)

The exam pattern remains the same as the previous cycle. There is negative marking of 0.25 marks for each incorrect answer.
