How to Complete Online Reporting for CSAB Special Round 2 2026?

Round 2 is the final round of the Special counselling. All allotments are automatically treated as freeze. Candidates do not get the float, slide or surrender options at this stage.

The online reporting process has three parts. First, candidates must pay the IAF-II online through the accepted payment modes. Second, fresh applicants must upload the required documents in the NIT+ System. Third, candidates must respond to any query raised by the verifying officer within the given window.

Candidates whose documents were verified during the earlier JoSAA 2026 rounds are not required to upload them again. Their existing records will be reused for verification.

Documents Required for Online Reporting

Fresh allottees should keep the following documents ready in scanned form.

JEE Main 2026 admit card and score card.
Class 10 certificate for date of birth proof.
Class 12 mark sheet and passing certificate.
Category certificate issued by a competent authority.
PwD certificate, where applicable.
Photo identity proof issued by the government.
Recent passport size photograph and signature.

Why This Round Matters

Special Round 2 is the last chance for candidates to secure a seat in NITs, IIITs or GFTIs for 2026. No further counselling round will be held after this. Candidates who miss the online reporting deadline will lose their allotted seat.
