About SSC CGL

SSC CGL (Combined Graduate Level) fills graduate-level Group B and C posts in central ministries and departments. Its online form follows the same photo and signature rules as other SSC exams, shown below.

Important: SSC now takes your photo live

On recent SSC forms (including CGL 2026), your photo is captured live with your phone or laptop camera while you fill the form, so there is no photo file to upload. You still need to upload your signature.

For the live photo: sit facing a plain light wall, in good light, without a cap or glasses, and look straight at the camera.

SSC signature rules

Sign with a black pen on white paper, inside a box about the size your notification asks for.
The file must be JPG/JPEG, between 10 KB and 20 KB.
Guides disagree on the exact dimensions (6 × 2 cm, 4 × 2 cm and others). Both common versions are in the list above, and Custom size covers anything else.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to upload a photo for SSC CGL 2026?

According to the 2026 CGL notification as reported by most guides, the photo is captured live during the application, so you do not upload a photo file. Check the instructions on the SSC portal for your exam.

Which signature size should I pick?

Use the size given in your exam notification. If it says about 6 × 2 cm, choose the first option. If it says 4 × 2 cm, choose the second.

My signature upload is rejected as too small.

PhotoSizeKaro always makes the file at least 10 KB. If the portal still complains, choose Custom size and set Min KB to 12.
