“This arrangement will facilitate candidates to fill up the first three parts anytime and keep ready for applying to any UPSC examination whenever notified with updates as may be required, thereby saving time and avoiding last minute rush,” the communique said.

All applicants are required to fill up the application and upload their documents in the newly introduced portal afresh by using the website http://upsconline.nic.in.

The old One Time Registration (OTR) module will not be applicable henceforth, the release said.

Applicants are strongly advised to use their Aadhar Card as ID document in the Universal Application for easy, effortless and seamless verification and authentication of ID and other details after which it serves as a permanent and common record for all examinations, it said.
