Is the SBI Clerk admit card out?

It was widely expected around 20 September 2026. We have not marked it as confirmed live here because portal reports still disagree. Log in at SBI careers rather than trusting a forwarded PDF. Backlog call letters were reported earlier (some sites said 4 September / 9 September for backlog). Regular and backlog hall tickets are different files.

How many SBI Junior Associate vacancies are there?

Do not memorise a single number from social media. This briefing notes both ~9,124 and ~9,766 regular headlines plus a backlog count near 1,583 on some pages. Only the CRPD/CR advertisement PDF is authoritative. State-wise language posts matter more than the all-India total because SBI Clerk allotment is circle-wise.

What is the SBI Clerk selection process?

Prelims (qualifying), Mains (merit), then a local language test that is qualifying for the circle you chose. There is no interview for Junior Associate. Negative marking is one-fourth in the objective tests. Wait for mains dates after the prelims result on sbi.co.in/careers. Do not mix this Clerk cycle with SBI PO mains (already held on 12 September 2026).

SBI PO mains is over. Can I use that admit card for Clerk prelims?

No. SBI PO and SBI Junior Associate are separate CRPD advertisements, separate fees and separate roll numbers. A 12 September PO mains hall ticket will not get you into a 26 September Clerk lab. Download the Junior Associate call letter when SBI enables it.
