SSC released city intimation slips for Stenographer Grade C and D 2026 on September 1. These confirm candidates’ exam cities. The Tier-I test begins September 9. With travel plans set, attention shifts to admit cards. These will release on official regional portals only, not through third-party links or forwards.
SSC indicates admit cards release two to three days before the exam. Expect them between September 6 and 8. Regions may stage uploads by shift. ‘Own scribe’ mapping on the One Time Registration portal is active. It remains open for Stenographer candidates until September 7, as per the latest schedule.

Use the Admit Card section on SSC to reach your regional portal. Log in with Registration Number or Roll Number and Date of Birth, plus the captcha. If details mismatch, try the registered name and correct date format. Admit cards may appear region-wise, so recheck closer to your scheduled day.
The city slip only tells your exam city and tentative date, not the exam centre. Use it to finalise travel and accommodation. The exact centre address, reporting time, and shift appear only on the admit card. Keep checking the portal where you saw the city slip for updates.
Carry two recent passport photos and one original, valid photo identity with full date of birth. If your ID lacks date of birth, bring a 10th marksheet or birth certificate. PwD candidates using an own scribe need a disability certificate and scribe declaration. The scribe’s entry pass releases alongside the admit card window.
Use SSC’s Admit Card page to reach your region. The regions are Northern, Central, Eastern, Western, Southern, North Western, Karnataka Kerala, North Eastern, and Madhya Pradesh Sub-Region. If login errors persist, verify DOB format, clear cache, and match application details. For unresolved issues, contact Regional Office helplines listed on the admit card.
Reach the venue as per the reporting slot; gates close at the printed entry time. Do not carry gadgets or pens; rough sheets and pens are provided in the lab. Keep a clean, legible A4 print of your admit card. Track regional portals between September 6 and 8, and travel with buffer time.
