SSC CPO Admit Card 2026: Status and Quick Answer
The SSC CPO (Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police and CAPFs) admit card, which SSC calls the Admission Certificate, is not out yet as of 1 November 2026. Paper-I is a computer based exam scheduled for 23 to 28 November 2026 (SSC corrigendum of 26.10.2026), and SSC's notice says the download facility opens 2 to 3 days before the exam on its website. No release date has been announced, so this page shows the status and will be updated when SSC posts the link.
Key takeaway: Expect the SSC CPO admit card roughly 2 to 3 days before your shift, with exam-city and timetable details about 10 days before the exam. Do not trust any date that is not on ssc.gov.in or your SSC regional website. Carry a printout of the admission certificate to the hall.

Once SSC uploads the link, the steps are simple:
- Open the website of your SSC regional office (listed against your exam centre in Para 11.1 of the notice) or the SSC head office site, ssc.gov.in.
- Find the link for the Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police and CAPFs Examination, 2026, Paper-I admission certificate.
- Log in with your registration number or roll number and the password or date of birth the page asks for.
- Check every detail, then download the PDF and take a clear printout.
Use only the official SSC websites for the download, and never a link that arrives through social media or messaging groups.
Details Printed on the Admission Certificate
Check these points the day you download it:
| Detail | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Name, date of birth, category | Must match your ID and application |
| Roll number and registration number | Needed for every communication with SSC (Para 13.5) |
| Exam date, shift and reporting time | Your reporting time can be earlier than the exam time |
| Exam centre name and address | Visit the centre location a day before if you can |
| Photograph and signature | Should be clear; mismatches create trouble at entry |
| Instructions | Follow them; the notice says the admit card can add instructions |
If any detail is wrong, contact your SSC regional office at once with proof of your application, using the registration number and roll number in your mail.
City Intimation Slip vs Admit Card
SSC uploads information about the exam time table and the city or centre on the regional site about 10 days before the exam. This is separate from the admission certificate, which can be downloaded only 2 to 3 days before the exam. The notice also warns that if your details are not visible one week before the exam, you must immediately contact the concerned regional office with proof of having submitted the application. Failing to do so can cost you any claim for consideration (Para 13.4).
Documents to Carry to the CPO Exam Hall
- A printout of the admission certificate (Para 13.6).
- Candidates who have not undergone Aadhaar based authentication must report two hours before the scheduled start and carry at least two recent passport-size colour photographs and an original valid photo ID that shows the date of birth printed on the admission certificate.
- Accepted IDs in Para 13.7 include Voter ID, Driving Licence, PAN Card and Passport. Read the full list in the notice.
Full rules about banned items and conduct are in our SSC CPO exam day guidelines 2026 note.
Paper-I Pattern in Brief
Paper-I has 100 questions for 100 marks in 1 hour, with 25 questions each in Reasoning, General Awareness, Quantitative Aptitude and English, a 15-minute sectional timer per part and 0.25 negative marking. The full table with Paper-II and qualifying marks is in our SSC CPO exam pattern 2026 note and the topic list is in the SSC CPO syllabus 2026.
PET Admit Card: Is It the Same as the Paper-I Admit Card?
No. The notice says all candidates who register and are provisionally accepted get admission certificates for Paper-I, and qualified candidates are subsequently issued admission certificates for the next stages (Para 13.1). So the PET/PST stage will have its own call letter after the Paper-I result. Meanwhile you can prepare with the SSC CPO physical test 2026 guide.
What to Do Before the Admit Card Comes Out
- Revise with the SSC CPO syllabus 2026 and attempt a timed paper such as SSC CPO Paper-1 full mock test 01.
- Practise switching sections every 15 minutes, because the sectional timer is new.
- Keep your photo ID, passport photographs and registered email and mobile number ready.
- Compare the post with CGL using SSC CPO vs SSC CGL if you are choosing between them.
