Frequently Asked Questions

Why do UPSC, BPSC, and State PSCs require a Name and Date of Photo (DOP) stamp?

Recruitment commissions mandate printing the candidate's full legal name and the date the photo was clicked (DOP) in a clean white box at the bottom. This prevents candidates from submitting years-old outdated photographs and ensures facial appearance matches the candidate during examination center biometric verification.

What date should I write on the DOP stamp?

The Date of Photograph (DOP) must be recent—specifically taken within 10 days prior to the start of the online application form filling. For example, if you are filling the form on 15th March, the DOP date should ideally be between 5th March and 15th March.

Should the candidate name be written in CAPITAL letters?

Yes. It is standard best practice to type the candidate's full name in BLOCK/CAPITAL letters exactly as printed on your 10th Class / Matriculation certificate (e.g. "PRIYA SHARMA").
