Candidates who attend SSB interview are eligible for TA also know as SSB Travelling Allowance given by the respective SSB or AFSB centres. It is double the amount you have spent in the journey from your address to the respective SSB board. Though there are some important points you should know about SSB travelling allowance.
5 Things You Should Now About SSB Travelling Allowance
- TA is admissible for the shortest route only. If you are travelling from Delhi to Bangalore, then the amount you will give for the shortest route from Delhi to Bangalore even though you travelled to Mumbai from Delhi and then Bangalore from Mumbai.
- AC 3 Tier fare (including reservation-cum-sleeper charges) by main route from home station to SSB and bus fare from home to the nearest railway station (if not connected by rail) will be paid as per government rates on production of tickets. Even though you travel by airways, you will be given AC 3 Tier fare only and not the Air fair.
- No reimbursement of rail/bus fares/ reservation-cum-sleeper charges will be permitted in the absence of original travel documents. Make sure you have the original tickets if two friends are travelling together on a single ticket, both of you should have the original or photocopy of the travelling ticket.
- You are entitled to TA when you attend the interview for a commission for the first time. Such allowance is not admissible for second or subsequent attempts for the same type of commission. You will get the SSB travelling allowance once for permanent commission entry and for short service commission entry, irrespective to the type of entry. In short you can only claim SSB travelling allowance two times in your life.

Hello guys, I am currently working as accountant in Govt Sector. Now, my query is about the journey I will perform to attend SSB for Territorial Army recruitment. This is my first time. I am from Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands. I will be performing journeys by air. And, we don’t have trains connected with the main India. So, how would the fare be calculated?

i got good marks in afcat and expecting a berth in SSB but i am 74 kg weight which is 16 kilograms more than desired weight . so should i go to SSB or not
Yes, you should go. First of all you need to clear the interview, even if your are not declared medically fit you can make an appeal to medical board which will give you enough time to lose your weight. Not everyone gets the opportunity of appearing at ssb. My advice is you should go, it would be an unforgettable experience of your life.
