NEET PG 2026 Selective Edit Window Open till August 10

National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has issued a notice. It has opened the NEET PG 2026 selective edit window for aspirants. The window is live at the official portal, natboard.edu.in. Candidates have time till August 10, 2026 to fix deficient files. The correction facility runs for 11 days in total.

National Eligibility cum Entrance Test Postgraduate is India's top medical PG exam. It leads to MD, MS, PG Diploma, and DNB course seats.

The facility is meant for candidates flagged during image scrutiny. Only three files can be corrected in this window. These are the photograph, signature, and left thumb impression. No other application detail can be changed here.

NBEMS has said personal information cannot be updated during this period. Category, test city preferences, and academic details remain locked as well. The board has issued this facility only for image quality issues.

What Fields Are Open for Correction?

NBEMS has listed three specific files that candidates can fix. Any other request will not be processed by the board.

Photograph flagged as deficient during scrutiny
Signature that failed the image quality check
Left thumb impression marked as invalid

Who Can Use the Selective Edit Window?

Only a specific set of candidates can access this correction facility. NBEMS has drawn a clear line on eligibility for the window.

Registered NEET PG 2026 candidates with completed applications
Applicants flagged for image deficiency during NBEMS scrutiny
Candidates who received a notice on their registered email

Candidates whose images cleared scrutiny do not need to log in. The board has not opened the window for full form edits. Only image related corrections are processed in this window.

How to Correct the Deficient Images?

NBEMS has placed the correction tool inside the applicant dashboard. Candidates must follow a set of steps to submit fresh images.

Visit the official portal at natboard.edu.in.
Log in using registered credentials for NEET PG 2026.
Open the Image Scrutiny tab on the applicant dashboard.
Review the image flagged as deficient by the board.
Upload a fresh file that meets NBEMS specifications.
Save the changes before the August 10 deadline.

What Should the Fresh Files Look Like?

NBEMS follows strict image standards for the NEET PG 2026 application. Candidates should read the image upload rules before uploading fresh files.

Clear photograph with the face fully visible and centered
Signature done in running script on white paper
Left thumb impression that is clean and complete
Files in the format and size range set by NBEMS

The exact specifications are listed in the NEET PG 2026 information bulletin. Candidates can download the bulletin from the official portal. Cross checking the specs before upload avoids repeat rejection.

Some candidates may not have received the email notice yet. NBEMS advises checking the dashboard for a scrutiny status.
