🔹 Verification Venues and Schedule
While the detailed schedule and venue list will be available in the respective notifications on the official JKSSB website (www.jkssb.nic.in), candidates are advised to check regularly for updates.
Typically, the document verification sessions are conducted at the JKSSB Central Office, Jammu, or the Divisional Office, Srinagar, depending on the candidate’s domicile and post location.

- Finalize the provisional selection lists for each post based on verified merit.
