No edit option is available after the application is finally submitted, and the fee once paid is neither refunded nor adjusted. A separate online application must be submitted for each post you wish to apply for.
Documents Required
| Document | Format / Notes |
|---|---|
| Passport-size photograph | A clear, recent photograph uploaded in the format prescribed on the BMHRC portal. BMHRC warns that an unclear photograph may lead to rejection of the application. Resize your photo and signature → |
| Signature | A legible signature uploaded in the prescribed manner. Any significant variation in the signature may lead to rejection. |
| Certificate in support of age (Class 10th) | Matriculation or Secondary School Certificate — the only accepted proof of date of birth. Your name and date of birth must match it exactly. |
| Degree of the concerned speciality | Required at document verification for the post applied for. |

Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Submitting one application for several posts — a separate online application is required for each post, and the fee applies to each one.
- Applying for two posts whose examinations fall on the same day and in the same shift — you will be able to appear for only one of them, and the fee paid for the other is simply lost.
- Leaving the form incomplete or the fee unpaid — incomplete applications, applications with missing documents or annexures, and applications where the fee has not been successfully paid are treated as ineligible.
- Entering a name or date of birth that does not match your Matriculation certificate exactly — including your father’s and mother’s names — since any mismatch can cancel your candidature at any stage of the process.
- Waiting until 16 October to apply — the portal is heavily loaded near the closing date, and BMHRC states it accepts no responsibility for candidates who cannot submit in time because of connectivity or login failures.
- Assuming a mistake can be fixed later — no change or correction is permitted after final submission, and the fee is non-refundable and non-adjustable.
