SSC One Time Registration: how to register, log in and apply
Staff Selection Commission exams need a one time registration first. After that, you apply for any SSC exam from the same dashboard without filling your details again. Do it well before an exam opens, because the form for CGL, CHSL, MTS and others closes on a fixed date.

Step by step: one time registration
- Open the official SSC site and select the register option.
- Fill the details the form asks for: name, parents' names, date of birth, mobile and email, and verify them with OTP.
- Upload your photograph and signature.
- Save your registration ID and password. You log in with them.
- Check the registration summary once; changes are limited later.
Step by step: apply for an exam
- Log in to your account and open the dashboard.
- Under the exam you want, choose apply. Many details come from your profile.
- Choose exam centres or regions as asked, then preview the form.
- Pay the fee online if it applies to you, then download the confirmation.
Login problems
- Forgot password: use the forgot password option and verify by OTP or the email you registered.
- OTP not received: check the number, wait a few minutes and try again.
- Photo rejected: check the size and format, and the plain background.
- Details wrong after registration: use the correction window when the commission opens it, or the facility the notice mentions.
