IBPS PO / MT XVI: application files and current stage

PO / MT XVI registration closed on 26 July 2026. The four common image files are useful preparation, but declaration wording and limits still belong to the exact notice.

Current position: The PO / MT XVI registration window is closed. Follow the official cycle page for examination-stage notices. Do not treat PO, CSA and RRB recruitment as one open application.

Choose the exact IBPS recruitment

IBPS publishes separate pages for PO, customer-service and regional-rural-bank cycles. A familiar-looking upload form does not make the cycle dates or declaration text interchangeable.

  • Check the recruitment name and Roman-numeral cycle.
  • Open the cycle page from ibps.in.
  • Use the FAQ for portal behaviour, not for replacing the detailed notice.

Common files to prepare

Major IBPS forms commonly request a photograph, signature, left-thumb impression and handwritten declaration. The exact active notice controls all wording and limits.

  • Photograph: commonly 200 × 230 px and 20–50 KB
  • Signature: commonly 140 × 60 px and 10–20 KB
  • Left thumb: commonly 240 × 240 px and 20–50 KB
  • Declaration: commonly 800 × 400 px and 50–100 KB

Protect handwriting and identity

Write the declaration and signature yourself. Cropping, contrast cleanup and file-size reduction are appropriate; redrawing strokes or generating handwriting is not.

  • Keep the unedited capture.
  • Check the correct file in every preview slot.
  • Save the final application and registration details.
