Applying for SSC CGL, CHSL, GD Constable, or MTS requires candidates to upload category certificates (OBC/SC/ST/EWS) and educational documents. The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) portal at **ssc.gov.in** mandates that these PDFs must be under **200KB**.

Avoid Common SSC Rejection Traps

Many candidates scan their physical marksheets or caste certificates using mobile scanner apps. These apps default to 300 DPI or color mode, making a single-page PDF 2MB to 3MB in size. Simply changing the file extension or running it through a low-quality online converter can result in an illegible blur, which can lead to direct application rejection during physical document verification (DV).
