Is date important on the photograph uploaded during the form filling for SSC CGL? Is there a chance that the application might be rejected due to this?
SSC CGL - Information Bulletin
Date On Photograph
No dear the date on the photo uploaded is not important. In the SSC CGL notification, it is generally mentioned that the photograph must not be older than 3 months but they not mention putting a date on the photograph uploaded. Size of the Photograph is mentioned. Category that which photograph would be accepted is mentioned in the notification. I don’t think that would be a problem and would become a reason for the rejection of your application.

Has anyone got rejected during the document verification process of SSC CGL?
DiskhaSharma
As much I know, no candidate has been disqualified during SSC verification to date unless falsified documents are discovered during cross-checking/verification.
If a discrepancy is discovered in any document or required document that has not been submitted or is not in accordance with the prescribed format/guidelines, the competent authority will require you to sign a declaration stating the time limit within which you must submit the requested documents as soon as possible.
DiskhaSharma One of my friends got rejected because of the Expired Caste/ EWS/ OBC(non-creamy layer)certificate.
- Edited
DiskhaSharma One of my cousin got rejected because the issue date of all the document uploaded before downloading E-admit card for Stage-II was after the closing date of application. You must be careful about this.
When checking documents, the deviation is almost zero. However, when the department re-checked the documents, some applicants were fired on fake diplomas.
