JSSC Para Teacher 2026 last date and fee
| Application step | Date or amount |
|---|---|
| Registration | Registration runs from 29.09.2026 to 18.10.2026. |
| Closing time | The portal banner says 12 noon on 18.10.2026, the notice says midnight. |
| Fee payment date | Not announced as on 05.10.2026, a separate notice will follow. |
| Photo and signature upload | Upload closes at midnight on 22.10.2026. |
| Correction window | Corrections are open from 23.10.2026 to 24.10.2026, except name, birth date, email and mobile. |
| Fee | The exam fee is Rs 100 for most candidates. |
| Fee for SC and ST | Jharkhand SC and ST candidates pay Rs 50. |

| Original window | The first application round ran from 31.07.2026 to 30.08.2026. |
Note: The application portal contradicts itself on the closing time. Its top banner reads 18 October 2026 12:00:00 PM, while its own Important Dates page and Notice No. 2 say midnight. Submit before noon on 18.10.2026 and the conflict cannot hurt you. Notice No. 2 changed the dates for unavoidable reasons. It says the fee payment date will be published separately, so a listing that gives 18.10.2026 as the fee deadline is ahead of the commission. Candidates from outside the Jharkhand SC and ST categories who pay the concessional Rs 50 risk having their application cancelled. The fee is not refunded.
- Open the New Registration link in Important Links below and register before noon on 18.10.2026.

Note: Totals are from the district tables in the 04/2026 brochure, and we added them up. The 05/2026 backlog brochure says Advertisement 04/2026 has 6,106 posts, five more than its own district tables add up to. We go by the tables, which list every district. The backlog posts are 847 for Classes 1 to 5, 19 for language, 248 for maths and science and 84 for social science, which makes 1,198. Paschimi Singhbhum has the most Class 1 to 5 posts (204) and Palamu the most language posts (208). Ramgarh has the fewest primary posts, 12. Merit is drawn up statewide and by the subject group in which you cleared the TET.
