The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has released a corrigendum on April 10, 2026, regarding the Sliding Framework System for the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Examination 2025-26. This update includes crucial changes to the identity verification process and Aadhaar authentication requirements. Candidates must now choose between 'Fix'—to confirm their current post—and 'Float'—to request an upgrade based on merit and preference. The verification process has been decentralized, allowing candidates to visit their chosen venue as indicated in their confirmation slip. Enhanced Aadhaar authentication mandates that candidates carry their registered mobile number for OTP verification, and those without Aadhaar must present their original Aadhaar card. Notably, failure to comply with these requirements or to report on time could lead to immediate cancellation of their candidature. Candidates are advised to download the corrigendum and review the updated instructions carefully to ensure compliance during the verification process.
