SSC 10+2 CHSL Tier I, Tier II Exam Syllabus 2026

This page tracks SSC 10+2 CHSL Tier I, Tier II Exam Syllabus 2026, a certificate verification schedule. The key figures are an application window closing 07 October 2026 and a fee of ₹500 for unreserved candidates. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) recruits for Group B and Group C posts across central government departments. SSC selections are computer-based, normally multi-tier, and use normalised scores across shifts — the raw mark you calculate from the answer key is not the mark used for the cut-off.

Applications open on 07 September 2026 and close on 07 October 2026, giving candidates 31 days to complete the process. The 31-day window is comfortable, though last-day traffic still causes portal failures every cycle — applying in the first half avoids it. A correction window is listed (14-16 October 2026), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for As per Schedule; treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

The age limit runs from 18 to 27 years for unreserved candidates. That is a 9-year band, so candidates near either edge should confirm the exact cut-off date the notification measures age against — it is usually a fixed reference date, not the date you apply. On qualifications, the notification states: 10+2 Intermediate Exam from Any Recognized Board in India. More Eligibility Details Read the Notification. If your degree is an equivalent under a different name, look for the equivalence clause in the official PDF before paying the fee — a form rejected for a qualification mismatch is not usually refundable.

SC / ST and PH (Divyang) / Female are exempt from the application fee under this notification. Fee-paying categories are charged between ₹100 and ₹500, depending on category. Payment is accepted via debit card, credit card, net banking, and offline bank challan. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

SSC CHSL turns on speed and accuracy in the objective tier, followed by a typing or data entry skill test that is qualifying but strictly timed. Candidates who prepare only for the objective paper and neglect typing speed are eliminated at the last stage every cycle.
