SSC CHSL registration is fully online on SSC’s new portal and follows a two-part process:

1. One Time Registration (OTR)
2. Filling the SSC CHSL online application form

This guide explains each step with a practical checklist so you can submit your form without errors.

SSC’s official application procedure lists the items you should keep ready before starting OTR.

• Mobile number (OTP verification)
• Email ID (OTP verification)
  

SSC asks for Aadhaar number, and if Aadhaar is not available, you can use one of these IDs: Voter ID, PAN, Passport, Driving License, School/College ID, Employer ID.

• Board name, roll number, year of passing of Matriculation (Class 10)
  (Your Name/Father/Mother/DOB should match your Class 10 certificate to avoid issues.)
  

• Disability certificate number (if PwBD) and scribe/compensatory time requirements where eligible.

OTR is required on the new SSC portal; old OTR may not work for the new system.

1. Click Login/Register → Register Now (OTR start)
2. Fill Personal Details (some critical fields are entered twice for verification; mismatches highlight in red)
3. Verify mobile + email via OTP
4. System generates Registration Number + password (sent to mobile/email)
5. Complete remaining parts: Password creation → Additional details → Declaration
6. Finish OTR within 14 days, otherwise saved details can be deleted.

✅ Pro Tip: Fill your Name/DOB/Parents’ names exactly as in Class 10 certificate (SSC explicitly emphasizes this).

Once OTR is complete, you’ll log in and fill the CHSL application. SSC’s CHSL notice procedure describes this as Part-II of the same process.

1. Login using Registration Number + password (from OTR)
2. Click Apply for CHSL under live exams (wording varies by portal UI)
3. Verify auto-filled non-editable OTR fields; use Modify Registration only if needed
4. Fill remaining details: category, preferences, exam medium, typing test medium (where applicable)
5. Upload signature carefully—blurred signatures can lead to rejection
6. Preview all details → declaration (“I agree”) → captcha → final submit

SSC introduced a provision where live photograph is captured during application (instead of uploading an old photo), using webcam/laptop or an Android device—SSC has explicit instructions for lighting/background and camera angle.

• Plain background + good light
• Camera at eye level, face centered, look straight
• Avoid cap, tinted glasses, heavy shadows (practical best practice; aligns with the intent of SSC’s instruction)

Recent SSC CHSL notices widely state ₹100 fee and exemptions for women/SC/ST/PwBD/eligible ESM. Exact rules must be verified from the current year’s official CHSL notice, but this structure is consistent across cycles.

• Pay early; don’t wait for last day (SSC warns about portal load issues).
• Save payment proof / acknowledgement page.

SSC typically provides a correction/edit window in many exams; older SSC notices mention correction charges and online-only payment modes, but dates/charges vary each year, so treat this as process understanding, not a fixed 2026 promise.

Best practice: Submit carefully the first time; use correction only if absolutely necessary.

SSC generally states printout may not be required to submit physically, but you should keep a saved copy for records.

SSC releases application status region-wise closer to exam.

SSC has experimented with letting candidates choose exam city/date/shift (pilot seen in CHSL 2025 cycle). If continued, it appears inside candidate portal login.

Yes. SSC’s application procedure is a two-part process: OTR + application form.

Mobile + email for OTP, Aadhaar (or alternate ID), and Class 10 board/roll/year details are listed in SSC’s procedure.

SSC’s OTR flow mentions that if registration isn’t completed within 14 days, data can be deleted.

SSC’s notice states the new module captures live photographs using a webcam/laptop or Android device and provides instructions on lighting/background.

SSC indicates you can modify OTR data, but warns wrong information can lead to cancellation; use modify carefully.

SSC emphasizes Name, Father’s name, Mother’s name, DOB and matriculation details should match Class 10 certificate.

Common structure in recent notices: ₹100 fee; women/SC/ST/PwBD/eligible ESM exemptions—confirm from official 2026 notice when released.

SSC explicitly warns that blurred signature uploads can lead to rejection.
