i completed my graduation in 2022 but still have a backlog in which passed date is of year 2024 so what passing year should i mention in exam fom or ssc cpo, 2022 or 2024?

shivamtrivedi0005 5th Mar, 2024

Hii There,

In this case, since you completed your graduation in 2022, you should mention the passing year as 2022 in your exam forms or SSC CPO application. The passing year refers to the year in which you completed your degree, not the year in which you cleared any backlog subjects.

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks

my dob is 12/09/1994,currently im 27.3 years old.i cant finish my application for ssc cpo 2022. after completing application it shows a message that youre not eligible as your dob not to meet as notification. for obc catagory 3yr relaxation means till 28 yr old can apply for it. what will i do sir?

Arhana Chakraborty 12th Aug, 2022

This is not very obvious. It may occur due to some problem in the server or due to a bug in the website. Now for the SSC CPO examination, the age must be less than 28 year of age before 1st January,2022. As a result, if you won't be able to apply for the examination, then I would suggest you to contact the SSC Regional Network.
