DSSSB Advt. 04/2026 Combined Exam: SPA, PA, JJA Posts

The Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) has published Vacancy Notice/Advertisement No. 04/2026 for the Combined Examination, 2026. The notice is dated 30-09-2026.

The official heading names Senior Personal Assistant, Personal Assistant and Junior Judicial Assistant. It also names Process Server and Peon/Orderly/Dak Peon.

This post tells you what the notice confirms and what you must still read in the PDF yourself. We have not been given the vacancy numbers, fees, last date or typing speed, so we do not state them here. Please open the official notice before you plan anything.

What the notice says

The notice is titled: "VACANCY NOTICE/ADVERTISEMENT NO. 04/2026 COMBINED EXAMINATION, 2026 FOR SENIOR PERSONAL ASSISTANT, PERSONAL ASSISTANT, JUNIOR JUDICIAL ASSISTANT". The heading continues with Process Server and Peon/Orderly/Dak Peon. The date shown is 30-09-2026.

So this is one combined advertisement for several posts. Each post can have its own eligibility, pay level and selection stages. Do not assume one rule applies to all of them.

You can read the original notice on the DSSSB website. We have also covered this advertisement earlier in DSSSB Advt. No. 04/2026: Senior PA, PA, JJA Posts.

What you must confirm in the PDF

Our facts end at the title and the date. Everything below is for you to check in the official notice. Do not rely on a forwarded message or a screenshot.

• Vacancies: post-wise and category-wise numbers.
• Application dates: when the online form opens and the last date to submit.
• Fee: the amount and any exemption.
• Eligibility: age limit, qualification and any skill requirement for each post.
• Selection stages: written exam, skill test or typing test, and document verification.
• Typing or shorthand rules: language, speed, time and passage length.

Which posts need typing

Posts such as Personal Assistant and Junior Judicial Assistant are office posts, so a skill or typing test may be part of the process. But we cannot say that from the facts we have. The notice will tell you which post has which test.

Look for the words "skill test", "typing test" or "stenography" in the post-wise details. Note the language too. Some DSSSB posts allow a choice of language, so read this carefully. Our post on choosing the typing language for DSSSB Junior Assistant (Urdu Academy) shows why this detail matters.

If the notice says nothing about typing for a post, do not spend time on it for that post.

How to read the notice without missing anything

1. Open the official link and download the PDF to your phone.
2. Find your post in the list. Read only that post's row first.
3. Write down the eligibility and the cut-off date for age and qualification.
4. Find the selection scheme. Note every stage and whether each stage is qualifying.
5. Find the skill test details. Copy the speed, time and language exactly.
6. Note the last date for the form and the fee. Add the date to your phone calendar with a reminder.

This takes about twenty minutes. Many candidates skip it and lose a chance over a small detail, like a missing document or a wrong category.

How to prepare for the typing part

You do not need the exact speed to start. Good habits help in any typing test. Begin with accuracy, then add speed slowly.

Practise on a full-size keyboard, not only on your phone. Sit straight and keep your eyes on the screen. Type passages in the same language the notice asks for.

Mistakes are where candidates lose marks. Spacing errors, skipped words and wrong punctuation add up. Counting rules differ between exams. Our explainer on full and half mistakes in the SSC CHSL typing test will help you understand the idea. Do not copy its rules for DSSSB. Use only the rules written in the DSSSB notice.

Once you know the required speed, set your practice target a little above it. Take a timed test at the exact duration given in the notice. Check your accuracy after every test, not only your speed.

Common mistakes at the application stage

Most problems come before the exam, not in it. Check these before you pay the fee.

• Your name and date of birth must match your certificates.
• Your photo and signature should follow the size and format in the notice.
• Choose the correct post code if the form asks for one.
• Keep your category certificate ready if you claim any reservation.
• Save the final form and the fee receipt as PDF.

Do not wait for the last day. Websites are often slow when many people apply together.

What to do this week

• Open the official DSSSB notice today and save the PDF on your phone.
• Write down the eligibility and age rules for your post only.
• Find the typing or skill test details and copy the speed, time and language exactly.
• Set a reminder for the form opening date and the last date once you find them.
• Start daily typing practice for 20 to 30 minutes, with accuracy first.
• Keep your documents and photo ready in the format the notice asks for.
