What Each Application Status Means

Conditionally Accepted / Partially Accepted Accepted with conditions — read portal remarks; you may need to clarify documents or eligibility later.
Rejected Application not accepted; the reason is shown in login. City slip / admit card are not issued for rejected forms.

SMS / email alerts may also go to the mobile and email used at registration. Still verify the live status on rrbapply.gov.in.

How to Check RRB ALP Application Status 2026

  1. Open https://www.rrbapply.gov.in/.
  2. Click Candidate Login (or Aadhaar-based login if offered).
  3. Enter Registration Number and Password / Date of Birth.
  4. Complete captcha / OTP as shown.
  5. Open CEN 01/2026 — Assistant Loco Pilot.
  6. View Application Status (Accepted / Conditional / Rejected).
  7. Screenshot or download for your records.

If login fails, confirm you are using CEN 01/2026 credentials (not an older CEN 01/2025 ALP login), try another browser, and use only the official domain.

Common Reasons for Rejection

Soft list based on typical RRB scrutiny and public reporting of this cycle:

  • Photo / signature unclear or not as per specs
  • Personal data mismatch (name, DOB, etc.)
  • Eligibility (age / qualification / category) not matching CEN rules
  • Fee not paid or payment failed within the deadline
  • Multiple applications by the same candidate
  • Incomplete form or invalid reservation claim

Read the exact rejection text on your dashboard — that wording prevails.

What Comes Next After Status Check

For Provisionally / Conditionally Accepted candidates:

  1. Prepare for CBT-1 as per the ALP syllabus in CEN 01/2026.
  2. Watch for city intimation slip (exam city).
  3. Download e-call letter / admit card when activated (often a few days before the exam).
  4. Appear for CBT-1, then later stages (CBT-2 / CBAT / DV / medical) as notified.

For Rejected candidates: note the reason; there is generally no re-open of the closed apply window for this CEN.
