The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has released the examination city details for the Selection Post Phase-XIV/2026 Computer Based Examination. Candidates who submitted applications for the recruitment can now log in to the official SSC website and check the city allotted for their examination.
The Computer Based Examination is scheduled to be conducted from September 16 to September 26, 2026. Candidates should check their allotted city at the earliest, particularly if the examination location requires travel. The examination city information should not be confused with the Admission Certificate, which will be made available separately.
SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam City Details
SSC issued the latest notice on September 8, 2026, providing information about the examination city and the subsequent release of Admission Certificates. The city details can be accessed through the designated login module on the Commission’s official website.

How to Check SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam City
Candidates can check their allotted examination city online through the SSC website. The process requires the candidate to access the designated login module and use the credentials associated with the application.
- Visit the official SSC website.
- Open the candidate login section.
- Log in using the required credentials.
- Go to the Selection Post Phase-XIV/2026 examination section.
- Open the examination city information.
- Check the allotted examination city and retain the details for reference.
The city information can help candidates determine whether they need to travel before the examination. Candidates should avoid relying on unofficial messages or older recruitment articles if the information differs from the latest notice issued by SSC.
Exam City Details Are Different From the Admission Certificate
The release of the examination city does not mean that the Admission Certificate has also been issued. These are separate stages of the examination process.
The examination city information indicates the city allotted to the candidate. The Admission Certificate will contain the detailed information candidates need for appearing in the examination. SSC has stated that the Admission Certificate will tentatively be available for download two or three days before the respective examination date.
Therefore, candidates should use the city information to make travel arrangements but continue checking the official SSC login module for the Admission Certificate.
When Will the SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Admit Card Be Released?
SSC has not specified one common Admission Certificate release date for every candidate. According to the September 8 notice, the Admission Certificate is expected to be available approximately two to three days before the candidate’s examination date.
Since the Computer Based Examination is being conducted between September 16 and September 26, candidates with earlier examination dates should check the portal accordingly rather than waiting for a single release date applicable to everyone.
Once the Admission Certificate is available, candidates should download it and carefully verify the examination date, reporting details, centre information and other instructions mentioned in the document.
SSC Selection Post Phase 14 Exam Date 2026
The Computer Based Examination for Selection Post Phase-XIV/2026 is scheduled from September 16 to September 26, 2026.
This schedule is important for candidates who may have been following the tentative examination period mentioned in the original recruitment notification. The April notification had indicated June 2026 as the tentative examination period, while the latest SSC notice provides the September examination window.
Candidates should therefore follow the latest official communication rather than relying on the tentative dates printed in the earlier notification.
| Event | Date/Status |
|---|---|
| Phase-XIV/2026 Notification | April 13, 2026 |
| Examination City Details | Released on September 8, 2026 |
| Computer Based Examination | September 16–26, 2026 |
| Admission Certificate | Expected 2–3 days before the respective exam date |
Important Update for Candidates Using Their Own Scribe
The latest SSC notice also contains instructions for candidates who have opted to use their own scribe during the examination.
SSC has stated that scribe registrations made before November 5, 2025 were disposed of and that fresh registration may be required. The Commission has also introduced Aadhaar Authentication in the scribe registration process.
Candidates who intend to use their own scribe should follow the registration and mapping requirements specified by SSC. The Commission has prescribed September 11, 2026, up to 11:00 PM as the deadline for mapping the scribe’s One-Time Registration (OTR).
The Scribe Entry Pass will be generated after successful mapping of the scribe’s OTR. Candidates affected by this instruction should complete the process within the specified deadline.

What Candidates Should Do Now
The release of the examination city gives candidates an opportunity to make practical arrangements before the examination. This is particularly relevant for candidates whose allotted city is different from their usual place of residence.
- Check the allotted examination city through the official SSC portal.
- Note the city information for travel planning.
- Continue checking the SSC portal for the Admission Certificate.
- Download the Admission Certificate when it becomes available.
- Verify the examination date and centre details on the Admission Certificate.
- If using an own scribe, complete the required OTR mapping before the prescribed deadline.
Candidates should also keep their registration details and login credentials available so they can access the Admission Certificate when it is released.
Why the Latest SSC Update Matters
The release of the examination city provides candidates with the location information needed to prepare for the upcoming Computer Based Examination. For those who need to travel, knowing the city in advance can make it easier to plan the journey rather than waiting until the final few days.
The next key communication will be the Admission Certificate. Its expected availability two or three days before the respective examination date means candidates should continue monitoring the official portal throughout the examination period.
Candidates should rely on the latest official SSC notices for changes to examination dates, admission instructions or other requirements. The official SSC website should be treated as the primary source for the final examination information.
