The Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB) will release the type-test call letter for the Junior Assistant recruitment on 10 July 2026, and the type test will be held from 15 July 2026 at NIELIT centres in Jammu and Srinagar. This stage is for candidates shortlisted from the written examination held on 19 April 2026 under Notification No. 08 of 2025 (343 posts). The single most important thing to understand up front: this type test is qualifying only — you must clear it to stay in the race, but your marks in it are not added to the merit list, which is decided by your written exam score.

Type test date, centre and what to expect
The type test runs with effect from 15 July 2026 at NIELIT centres in Jammu and Srinagar, on the date and shift printed on your call letter. Because the board conducts biometric and facial authentication at the centre, plan to reach about an hour before your reporting time — gates close before the test starts and late entry is not allowed. The test checks your typing on a computer; treat it like any skill test — arrive calm, confirm your keyboard and system work during the trial time, and type steadily rather than racing and making errors.
Is the type test scored or only qualifying?
The type test is qualifying in nature only. That means it decides whether you remain eligible, but the marks are not added to your final merit — your rank still rests on the written examination. This matters for how you approach it: you do not need a record-breaking speed, only to meet the board's minimum typing speed and accuracy. The exact speed and accuracy required are specified in the official notice for this recruitment; confirm them on jkssb.nic.in and ignore unofficial figures circulating online, because a wrong number can make you either over-prepare or fall short.
What to carry and centre rules
- Printed type test call letter (do not rely on a phone copy).
- One original photo identity document — Aadhaar card, Voter ID, Driving Licence, Passport or PAN card.
- Photographs if your call letter asks for them.
- Reach about an hour early for biometric and facial verification; follow the reporting and no-entry cut-off times exactly.
JKSSB Junior Assistant selection process
The selection runs in a clear sequence: the written examination (the OMR paper held on 19 April 2026) builds the merit; shortlisted candidates then sit the type test, which only qualifies; those who clear it go to document verification; and the final selection follows. So your written score is what ranks you — the type test simply confirms you have the clerical skill the post needs.

A note for candidates.
Do not lose your written-exam rank by treating the type test casually — or by fearing it too much. Because it is qualifying only, the smart approach is to comfortably clear the board's minimum speed with clean accuracy rather than chase a high number: a fast run full of errors can fail you on accuracy, while a steady, correct pace passes. Practise on a standard keyboard for the few days you have, and confirm the exact required speed and accuracy from the official notice — not from a random figure online, since preparing for the wrong target is the most common avoidable mistake here. On the day, the biometric and facial check is the real reason to arrive an hour early; candidates who cut it fine risk being stopped at the gate. Keep your written-exam hall ticket and photo ID ready too, and remember that clearing this stage simply moves you to document verification, where your original certificates decide the rest.
