5 | Upload the prescribed photograph, signature, left thumb impression, handwritten declaration and required documents. |
6 | Complete the live photograph step if prompted by the IBPS application workflow. |
7 | Pay the applicable fee online and verify successful payment. |
8 | Officer applicants: registration, editing and fee payment shown up to 27 September 2026 in the supplied updated Officer portal screenshot. |
9 | Office Assistant applicants: current official portal still shows 21 September 2026 as the closing date. |
10 | Save / print the completed application within the applicable portal printing deadline. |
Check | What to Verify |
|---|---|
Screenshot Verification | The screenshot title matches the official IBPS Group A Officers (Scale I, II & III) CRP-RRBs-XV application portal. |
Same Recruitment? | Yes. It belongs to CRP-RRBs-XV, the same recruitment tracked on the ResultNotify page. |
Does Screenshot Cover Office Assistant? | No. The screenshot itself is for Group A Officers only. |
Officer Last Date | 27 September 2026 in the supplied updated Officer portal screenshot. |
Office Assistant Last Date | 21 September 2026 on the currently indexed official Office Assistant portal. |
ResultNotify Alignment | The combined page should show cadre-wise deadlines instead of one common deadline. |
Qualification Cut-off | Keep 21 September 2026 unless an IBPS corrigendum explicitly changes it. |
Latest Vacancies | Use 13,745 as updated on 15 September 2026. |
One Officer Post Rule | A candidate can apply for only one Officer cadre post among Scale I, II and III. |
Office Assistant + Officer | A candidate may apply separately for Office Assistant and one Officer post, with separate fees. |
Yes. The screenshot is for CRP-RRBs-XV Group A Officers - Scale I, II and III, which is part of the same IBPS CRP-RRBs-XV recruitment covered on the ResultNotify page.
Not on the evidence currently available. The supplied screenshot shows 27 September 2026 for Group A Officers, while the official Office Assistant portal currently shows 21 September 2026. The two cadres should therefore be displayed separately.
The updated vacancy position dated 15 September 2026 gives 13,745 indicative vacancies across Office Assistant and Officer Scale I, II and III posts.
The application-portal extension alone does not establish that. Keep 21 September 2026 as the qualification / experience cut-off unless IBPS issues a separate corrigendum changing it.
Yes. One separate Office Assistant application and one separate Officer application may be submitted. Separate fees apply, and within the Officer cadre only one post among Scale I, II and III can be selected.
Yes. One-fourth or 0.25 of the marks assigned to a question is deducted for each incorrect objective answer. Unanswered questions carry no penalty.
