If you’ve been losing sleep over the AIIMS Paramedical registration, here is a bit of breathing room: the All India Institute of Medical Sciences has officially pushed the Basic Registration deadline to May 10, 2026.

But here’s the ground reality: even with the extension, the PAAR (Prospective Applicants Advanced Registration) system is still catching students off guard. If you think you can just “fill the form” on the 10th and be done, you’re in for a stressful surprise.
📅 The New 2026 Schedule
You have until 5:00 PM on May 10 to get your foot in the door. If you miss this, you can’t even pay the fees or choose an exam center later this month.
| The Milestone | Revised Date |
| Basic Registration (Last Date) | May 10, 2026 |
| Status Update (Accepted/Rejected) | May 13, 2026 |
| Correction Window | May 17 – May 19, 2026 |
| Final Registration & Fee Payment | Open until May 25, 2026 |
| Entrance Exam (CBT) | July 4, 2026 |
🛠️ The “Two-Step” Trap: Why Basic Isn’t Enough
I’ve noticed a lot of confusion in the comments lately. Many students think that once they get their PAAR ID, they’re registered for the exam. They aren’t.
-
Stage 1 (The Gatekeeper): Basic Registration. You upload your info and photos. AIIMS then spends 2-3 days “vetting” your pictures.
-
Stage 2 (The Real Deal): Once your photo is accepted, you have to log back in and Generate a Registration Unique Code (RUC). Without this code, the “Final Registration” button won’t even appear.
🔍 Avoiding the “Rejected” Status
AIIMS is probably the pickiest institution in India when it comes to document scans. If you want your application accepted on the first try, follow these 2026 “Pro-Tips”:
-
The Photo: Don’t use a selfie. Use a professional photo with a plain white background. If there is even a shadow behind your ears, the system might flag it as “invalid.”
-
The Signature: Sign in Black Ink. Blue ink often scans too light and gets rejected during the AI verification phase.
-
The RUC Code: You need a separate code for different courses (like B.Sc. Nursing vs. Paramedical). Don’t try to use the same RUC for both.
💡 Final Advice for May 2026
In 2026, AIIMS is using a “First-Come, First-Served” model for exam centers. If you wait until the last minute (May 25) to do your Final Registration, you might find that all the centers in Delhi, Lucknow, or Patna are full. You could end up traveling to a different state just to take a 90-minute exam.
The bottom line: Get your Basic Registration done by tonight. Check your status on the 13th, and generate your code the second it lets you.
