SSC Exam Dates 2026 Out – JE, SI Delhi Police, CHSL from 02.11.2026

Last updated: October 2, 2026 at 3:56 PM

SSC has fixed the proposed dates for three exams in a single notice: Junior Engineer (JE) Paper-I from 02.11.2026, Sub-Inspector (SI) in Delhi Police and CAPFs from 20.11.2026, and CHSL Tier-I from 30.11.2026. CAPFs are the Central Armed Police Forces, and CHSL is the Combined Higher Secondary (10+2) Level Examination. All three are computer-based exams (CBE). Before this, JE Paper-I was shown only as tentatively October or November, and the SI and CHSL dates were still to be announced. The notice gives only date ranges, not a date for each candidate.

Update Overview

Important Dates

The Three Exams at a Glance

This recap comes from our posts on the original notices, so open the post for full eligibility. The number of posts is tentative, which means it can still change. "Qualifying" means you must reach the minimum marks to move ahead, but those marks do not decide your final rank. The dates in the table are from those original notices.

All three first-stage tests are qualifying. Wrong answers cost 0.25 marks in JE and SI Paper-I, and 0.50 marks in CHSL Tier-I.

What This Means for You

1. Treat these dates as proposed. The notice itself calls them "proposed dates" and asks candidates to visit the SSC website at regular intervals for updates.
2. Your own date is not the first date in the window. JE runs for 5 days, SI for 9 days and CHSL for about a month. The notice does not give a date for each candidate.
3. If you want to apply for CHSL, do it before 07.10.2026. That is the last date in the CHSL notice, and the fee can be paid till 08.10.2026. Its correction window (the days when you can edit a form you have already submitted) is 14.10.2026 to 16.10.2026. JE and SI applications have already closed.
4. SI candidates can still fix form mistakes. The SI correction window runs from 08.10.2026 to 10.10.2026.
5. Use the gap to plan your revision. When the notice came out on 01.10.2026, JE Paper-I was a little over 4 weeks away, SI about 7 weeks and CHSL Tier-I about 8 and a half weeks.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Reading the first date of a window as your own exam date, when each window covers several days.
• Treating the dates as final, when the notice itself calls them "proposed dates".
• Leaving the CHSL form for the last day — the last date is 07.10.2026 (23:00 hours).
• Missing the SI correction window (08.10.2026 to 10.10.2026) if you spot a mistake in your submitted form.
• Relying only on forwarded messages instead of checking ssc.gov.in, where the notice asks candidates to look for updates.
