SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam City Slip Released

The Staff Selection Commission released the SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam City Intimation Slip on September 8, 2026. This slip is a crucial document that informs candidates about their allotted examination city well in advance of the actual admit card release. It allows aspirants to make necessary travel and accommodation arrangements, reducing last-minute stress. The examination is scheduled to be held from September 16 to 26, 2026, in three shifts each day.

How to Check Your Exam City Details

To check your allotted exam city, follow these steps:

  • Visit the official SSC website: ssc.gov.in.
  • Navigate to the 'Admit Card' or 'Candidate Corner' section on the homepage.
  • Select the relevant SSC regional website if prompted.
  • Click on the link for 'SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam City Intimation Slip'.
  • Enter your Registration Number/Roll Number and Date of Birth or Password.
  • Submit the details to view your exam city on the screen.

Please note that the city intimation slip primarily provides the examination city. The detailed examination centre address, reporting time, and shift timings will be communicated through the admit card.

Crucial Scribe Alert and Registration Updates

The SSC has issued important instructions regarding the use of the 'Own Scribe' facility for candidates with disabilities (PwBD). Candidates who have opted for an own scribe must take note of the following critical updates:

  • Fresh Registration Required: All candidates intending to use their own scribe must complete a fresh scribe registration on the SSC website. Previous scribe registrations, which were valid until November 5, 2025, have been disposed of.
  • Aadhaar Integration: The scribe registration process has now been integrated with Aadhaar Authentication. This means all individuals willing to register as scribes are required to complete a fresh registration using their Aadhaar details on the Commission's website.
  • Scribe OTR Mapping Deadline: Candidates who have opted for the Own Scribe facility were required to submit their scribe's registration number for generating the Scribe Entry Pass. The deadline for mapping the scribe's One-Time Registration (OTR) was September 11, 2026, by 11:00 PM.

It is imperative for candidates to adhere to this deadline. Failure to map the scribe's OTR by the specified date will result in the inability to generate the Scribe Entry Pass, potentially hindering the candidate's ability to appear for the examination with their chosen scribe.

Understanding Your SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Admit Card

While the exam city slip provides an early heads-up, the Admit Card is the mandatory document for entry into the examination hall. The SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Admit Card is expected to be released from September 14, 2026, onwards, typically 2-3 days before each candidate's respective exam date.

How to Download Your Admit Card

The download process for the admit card is similar to checking the exam city slip:

  • Visit the official SSC website (ssc.gov.in).
  • Go to the 'Admit Card' section.
  • Select your respective regional website.
  • Click on the link for 'SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Admit Card 2026'.
  • Enter your Registration Number/Roll Number and Date of Birth or Password.
  • Download and print multiple copies of your admit card for future reference.

The admit card will contain crucial details such as the candidate's name, roll number, registration number, father's/mother's name, date of birth, category, photograph, signature, exam date, shift timing, reporting time, exam centre name and address, centre code, and essential instructions for the exam day.

Documents Required for Exam Day

Candidates must carry the following to the examination centre:

  • A printed copy of the Admission Certificate (Admit Card).
  • An original, valid photo identity proof (e.g., Aadhaar Card, Passport, Driving License, Voter ID, or PAN card).
  • If there is any mismatch in the Date of Birth mentioned in the admit card and the photo ID, candidates should also carry a supporting document (e.g., 10th marksheet) as proof of DOB.

Important Instructions for Exam Day

Candidates are strongly advised to read all instructions mentioned on their admit card carefully. Adhering to these guidelines is essential for a hassle-free examination experience.

  • Reach on Time: Arrive at the examination centre within the prescribed reporting time to complete biometric verification and other formalities.
  • Prohibited Items: Do not carry any electronic gadgets, mobile phones, smartwatches, calculators, or study material into the examination hall. Any such items are typically strictly prohibited and may lead to disqualification.
  • Follow Protocols: Candidates should adhere to all instructions given by the invigilators and maintain decorum inside the examination hall.

Acing Your SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam

With the exam dates from September 16 to 26, 2026, candidates have a limited but crucial period for final preparations. Focus on revising key concepts, practicing with mock tests, and analyzing previous year's question papers. Strengthen your weaker areas and maintain a healthy routine to ensure peak performance on exam day. The SSC Selection Post Phase 14 examination typically consists of four sections: General Intelligence, General Awareness, Quantitative Aptitude, and English Language, with 25 questions per section, totaling 100 questions for 200 marks, to be completed in 60 minutes.
