UP job aspirants have six extra days. The Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission extended UPSSSC PET 2026 deadlines to September 7 for registration, fee payment, and final submission. The correction window remains open on September 8. The move follows OTP delays and heavy server load reported by candidates.
Media reports cite a formal corrigendum by the commission, continuing Advertisement No. 16-Examination/2026. Candidates should complete all three actions—register, pay, and submit—within the revised window on upsssc.gov.in. Do not wait for the final hours, as traffic spikes can trigger errors and payment reconciliation delays.

The extension covers three steps through September 7: registration, fee payment, and online form submission. The dedicated correction facility is available on September 8 for permissible fields only. Save payment proof and the final printout immediately after submission to avoid reconciliation hassles during the short correction window.
Create your One Time Registration (OTR) profile, verify mobile and email, then log in to apply. Keep recent passport photo, signature, Class 10 certificate, category certificates, and valid ID scans ready. OTR auto-fills basics across ads, reducing errors and speeding submission when traffic is high.
If OTPs lag, try off-peak hours, switch networks, and re-send after a few minutes. Check spam, whitelist the domain, and avoid repeated rapid attempts that throttle delivery. Use a reliable browser, clear cache, and keep one active session only. These issues were widely reported.
Pay online via UPI, cards, net banking, or SBI challan. Confirm “fee received” on your dashboard before logging out. Below are official category-wise charges for PET 2026.
| Category | Total fee (₹) |
|---|---|
| Unreserved | 185 |
| Other Backward Classes | 185 |
| Scheduled Caste | 95 |
| Scheduled Tribe | 95 |
| Persons with Disabilities | 25 |
After payment, verify “application submitted” and download the final PDF. If reconciliation lags, use the dashboard option before the window closes. On September 8, edit only allowed fields and recheck every page before resubmitting. Finish early to avoid last‑minute rush and server queues.
Key takeaway for candidates: complete OTR, upload documents, and finish registration, payment, and submission by Saturday, September 7, 2026. Use the September 8 correction window carefully, with proofs handy. Apply during lighter traffic hours and keep acknowledgements safe for future recruitments and admit card updates.
