The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) closes the Final Selective Edit Window for NEET PG 2026 applications today, August 15, 2026. This is the last chance for MD/MS applicants to correct image deficiencies.
Deficiencies can include issues with the passport-size photo, signature, and left thumb impression uploaded during initial registration. NBEMS states that applications with uncorrected image discrepancies will be rejected. This will cancel the candidate's eligibility for the exam.
No further correction facility will be available after the portal closes. Candidates must ensure their uploaded images comply with official guidelines found on natboard.edu.in.

Following the image correction phase, NBEMS will announce test city allocations. Admit cards for NEET PG 2026 are scheduled for release on August 27, 2026. The examination will take place on August 30, 2026. Results are expected by September 30, 2026.
