Coloured glasses, sunglasses, caps, or hats should NOT be worn.
No shadows on face, face covered with mask, or blurred/distorted photo.
Do NOT take photo in dark or improper cluttered background.
Avoid squinting into harsh sunlight or strong flash that causes "red-eye".

5 Common Mistakes That Lead to IBPS RRB Application Rejection

Signature in Capital / Block Letters: Clause 11 of Annexure III clearly states that signatures in capital letters will NOT be accepted. Use natural running cursive script.
Declaration in Another Person's Handwriting: The declaration must strictly be written in the applicant's own handwriting and in English. If uploaded in Hindi or typed by someone else, the application will be deemed invalid.
Blue Ink for Signature: IBPS specifies white paper with a Black Ink pen. Submitting blue ink signatures risks disqualification during call-letter matching at exam centers.
Squinting or Glare in Live Photo Capture: Candidates taking live webcam/QR photo in dark rooms or with harsh backlighting fail the face verification match on exam day. Use a well-lit white wall.
Oversized 10th Certificate PDF: The SSC marksheet or UDID certificate must be under 500 KB in PDF format. Scans saved directly at 600 DPI frequently exceed 2 MB and fail to upload.

Frequently Asked Questions (IBPS RRB CRP-RRBs-XV)

Are document upload sizes the same for IBPS RRB PO and Clerk?

Yes. Under CRP-RRBs-XV, both Officer Scale-I (PO) and Office Assistant (Clerk) require identical upload limits: Photo (20-50 KB), Signature (10-20 KB), Left Thumb (20-50 KB), and Handwritten Declaration (50-100 KB).

Is live photo capture mandatory for IBPS RRB 2026?

Yes. In addition to uploading your scanned passport photograph (20–50 KB), Annexure III requires candidates to capture a live photograph on the official portal via webcam or mobile phone QR scan.

Can I sign in CAPITAL / BLOCK LETTERS?

No! As per Annexure III, clause 11: "Signature / Hand written declaration in CAPITAL LETTERS shall NOT be accepted." Applications with capital letter signatures or declarations are disqualified. Always use natural cursive handwriting.

Why does the IBPS portal show "File size is not as prescribed"?

The IBPS portal validation strictly rejects photos larger than 50.00 KB or smaller than 20.00 KB, signatures outside 10.00–20.00 KB, thumb impressions outside 20.00–50.00 KB, and declarations outside 50.00–100.00 KB. This tool compresses your files using binary approximation to guarantee they fit within the exact legal threshold.

What if I do not have a left thumb?

Annexure III specifies that if a candidate does not have a left thumb, he/she may use the right thumb. If both thumbs are missing, one finger of the left hand starting from the forefinger may be used. If no fingers on the left hand, use a finger from the right hand. If no fingers are available, the impression of the left toe may be taken, with a written mention on the uploaded sheet.

Are images uploaded to any server?

No. All resizing and compression operations run 100% locally in your web browser using HTML5 Canvas API. Your personal photographs, signatures, and sensitive exam documents never touch any server.
