NEET PG 2026 Selective Edit Window Reopens; Check Last Date to Correct Images

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has reopened the final selective edit window for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Postgraduate (NEET PG) 2026 on the official portal at natboard.edu.in. The window opens at 1:00 PM on August 12, 2026 and closes at 11:55 PM on August 15, 2026. It allows candidates to fix only their rejected photographs, signatures, and thumb impressions.

NBEMS has flagged applications where uploaded images did not meet the prescribed picture guidelines. The board has clearly warned that no further opportunity will be given after this window shuts. Applications with uncorrected images risk cancellation.

NEET PG 2026 Selective Edit Window Key Dates

What Can Candidates Edit in This Window?

The reopened window is strictly limited to image-related deficiencies. NBEMS has permitted corrections only for the three visual documents attached to the application form. The editable items are listed below.

• Photograph that was rejected during the earlier verification
• Signature that did not meet the prescribed format
• Left thumb impression that was found deficient

No other field can be modified during this window. Personal details, academic records, category, and test city preferences remain locked. Candidates should not expect any change to core application data.
