Tips for a photo that gets accepted

  • Sign with a dark pen on plain white paper, then photograph or scan it in good light.
  • Do not wear a cap or dark glasses in the photograph.

  • Your signature on white paper, scanned as a JPG of about 10 to 20 KB

Timing

  • Each exam is notified once a year and the notification date can move from the calendar (CGL 2026 was planned for March and came in May).
  • The apply window usually lasts about a month.
  • Recent SSC notices capture your photograph live inside the form, so check the notice before you resize a photo file.
