CBSE Class 12 Scanned Copies 2026: In a major relief for Class 12 students, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has once again extended the deadline for students to apply for scanned photocopies of their evaluated answer books after students and parents complained about continuous technical glitches on the portal used to avail the facility.
The board has now extended the last date from May 23 to May 24, 2026, giving students an additional day to apply for the scanned copies.
In an official statement, CBSE said its website has been experiencing "unprecedented traffic" over the past few days and has also faced several attempts of unauthorised interference, leading to repeated disruptions in the system.

"The CBSE website has been facing unprecedented traffic over the past few days and has also faced several attempts of unauthorised interference, which has made it prone to disruptions. Hence, in an attempt to ensure that no student is left behind, the Board is extending the last date for obtaining scanned photocopies of answer books of the Class 12 Board Examinations," the board said.

The extension comes amid complaints from students and parents regarding failed payments, delayed access to scanned copies, and frequent crashes on the portal during the application process.
CBSE has also informed that students will be given up to two days after receiving the scanned copy of their answer book to apply for the next stage, including verification of marks or re-evaluation based on discrepancies observed in the answer sheets.
Students can apply for scanned photocopies of their evaluated answer books through the official CBSE portal at pvr.cbseit.in/pvr/.
