Is this page a list of new KPPSC job openings?

No. This page tracks test dates for posts where applications have already closed and shortlisting is complete. For posts currently open for application, check the Latest Jobs page.

How do I know if my specific post has a scheduled test?

Check this table for your post, advertisement number, and case/serial number, or search directly on KPPSC's official website, since schedules are published individually for each recruitment case rather than as one combined list.

Where can I download my KPPSC call letter or roll number slip?

KPPSC uploads call letters and roll number slips on its official website (www.kppsc.gov.pk) closer to the test date. Print this and bring it along with your original CNIC, since both are typically required for entry.

What happens if I don't receive an SMS or email about my test?

KPPSC's notices generally advise candidates who don't receive intimation through website, SMS, or email to confirm their status directly with KPPSC's office by phone or in-person visit, using the contact details in the specific schedule notice.

What documents do I need to bring to a KPPSC physical test?

Typically a printed call letter/roll number slip and original CNIC for entry, plus any required medical or vision certification specified in your post's notice — usually obtained from a Services or DHQ hospital in advance.

Are physical standards the same for every KPPSC post?

No. Height, chest measurement, and vision requirements are set individually per post, generally based on the nature of the role. Always check the exact standard listed in your specific post's schedule notice rather than assuming it matches another post.

How far in advance are KPPSC test schedules usually announced?

This varies by post and advertisement. Some schedules are announced weeks ahead; monitor KPPSC's official website regularly after applying rather than expecting a fixed notice period.

Do all KPPSC posts go through a written test, physical test, and interview?

No. The stages a candidate goes through depend on the specific post — some posts involve only a written test and interview, others add a physical test, and the required sequence is defined in the original advertisement and confirmed through individual schedule notices.

What's the difference between an advertisement number and a case/serial number?

The advertisement number identifies the overall recruitment drive (which can cover many posts), while the case or serial number identifies your specific post within that advertisement. Matching both is important since post titles can repeat across different advertisements with different requirements.

Can I request a change to my test date or venue?

This is governed by KPPSC's own policies, which we can't confirm generally. If you have a genuine conflict, contact KPPSC's office directly using the details in your schedule notice to ask about their process.

Where can I verify that a test schedule notice is genuinely official?

Always cross-check any schedule against KPPSC's official website (www.kppsc.gov.pk), since genuine notices carry KPPSC's letterhead, a specific schedule reference number, and are signed by the relevant Controller of Examinations.

KPPSC Test Schedule 2026 – Physical, Written & Interview Dates

Physical tests, written exams, and interviews organized by post and advertisement number, updated as KPPSC announces new schedules.

Last updated: September 2026. This page tracks confirmed test dates for candidates who have already applied. It is not a list of new job openings.

Once you've applied for a Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Public Service Commission post, the advertisement itself doesn't tell you when your test will happen — that comes later, in a separate schedule notice issued once shortlisting is complete. KPPSC publishes these schedules on a rolling basis throughout the year, organized by advertisement number and serial/case number, which means candidates often have to search through multiple individual notices just to find their own test date.

This page brings those schedules together in one place — physical tests, written exams, and interviews — organized by post and advertisement number, updated as KPPSC announces new ones. Whether you're checking a physical standard test date, confirming a written exam schedule, or looking for interview timing, this is meant to be a single reference point rather than something you have to piece together from scattered notices.

This page is specifically for candidates who have already applied and are tracking a confirmed test date — it is not a list of new job openings. If you're looking for posts currently open for application, see our Latest Jobs page. For the full picture of KPPSC eligibility, syllabus, and preparation strategy, see the KPPSC Exam Guide.

Current KPPSC Test Schedules

Updated as new schedules are officially announced by KPPSC. Last updated: September 2026.

Post	Test Type	Advertisement No.	Test Date	Venue
Assistant Superintendent Jail (Prison), BPS-16 — Home & Tribal Affairs Department	Physical Test	02/2026, Sr. No. 33	30/09/2026	Qayyum Sports Complex, Peshawar Cantt, Peshawar

More schedules will be added to this table as KPPSC announces them — new entries typically appear for physical tests, written exams, and interviews across different departments and advertisement cycles throughout the year. If you don't see your specific post listed yet, check directly with KPPSC's official website, since this table reflects a subset of schedules we've verified, not a real-time feed of every notice KPPSC issues.

Understanding Your Advertisement and Case Number

Every KPPSC schedule notice is tied to a specific advertisement number (the recruitment drive, e.g., "02/2026") and a serial or case number (your specific post within that advertisement, e.g., "Sr. No. 33"). This matters because a single advertisement can cover dozens of different posts across multiple departments, each potentially following a different schedule.

When checking for your test date — here or on KPPSC's official site — match both numbers exactly rather than just the post title, since post titles can repeat across different advertisements and departments with different eligibility, timelines, and requirements attached.

Types of KPPSC Tests You Might Be Scheduled For

Depending on your post, you may be scheduled for one or more of the following stages, generally in this order:

Written Test

Most general recruitment and BPS-scale posts start here: an objective MCQ-based paper (or, for select posts, a subjective component) covering the subjects specified in your post's syllabus. See our KPPSC Exam Guide for how syllabus and pattern vary by post.

Physical Test

Reserved for posts with a defined physical standard, typically law-enforcement-adjacent and certain administrative or field posts. This usually involves height and chest measurements against a set standard, a vision check, and confirmation of general medical fitness — as reflected in the current schedule entry above.

Interview

For most posts that clear the written and/or physical stage, an interview follows, generally assessing communication ability, relevant knowledge, and general suitability for the role.

Not every post goes through all three stages, and the order or combination can vary — always follow what's specified in your own advertisement and schedule notice rather than assuming a fixed universal sequence.

What a Physical Test Schedule Typically Requires

Based on how KPPSC physical test notices are generally structured, expect requirements along these lines (exact standards vary by post and are specified in your individual notice):

Physical measurements — height and chest measurement (with and without expansion) checked against the standard set for that specific post.
Vision standard — often requiring a certificate from a Services or DHQ hospital confirming eyesight meets the required standard without glasses, arranged in advance of the test date.
General medical fitness — a declaration or certification of being free from disqualifying disabilities, usually obtained alongside the vision certificate.
Call letter and CNIC — a printed call letter/roll number slip along with your original CNIC are typically mandatory for entry to the test venue; candidates without both are usually not permitted to appear.

A Practical Checklist Before Your Test Day

Regardless of test type, these steps reduce the chance of an avoidable problem on the day itself:

Download and print your call letter/roll number slip from KPPSC's official website as soon as it's uploaded — don't wait until the last day.
If your post requires a medical or vision certificate, book your hospital appointment well ahead of time, since these can take longer to arrange than expected.
Confirm your exact venue and reporting time from the official notice, and plan to arrive with buffer time, particularly for venues in cities you're not familiar with.
Carry your original CNIC — not a photocopy — along with your printed call letter.
If you haven't received any confirmation close to your expected test window, don't assume you've been excluded — contact KPPSC's office directly to confirm your status rather than missing the test on an assumption.

How to Stay Updated Between Now and Your Test

Check KPPSC's official website regularly, particularly its schedules section, since call letters and roll number slips are uploaded there directly.
Don't rely solely on SMS or email — KPPSC's own notices generally advise candidates who don't receive intimation through these channels to confirm their status independently.
Contact KPPSC's office directly using the phone numbers or contact details provided in your specific schedule notice if you have any doubt about your status.
Cross-check third-party sources (including this page) against KPPSC's official website before finalizing travel or leave arrangements, since official notices are the only authoritative source for your exact date, time, and venue.

Preparing for Your Test in the Time You Have Left

How you use your remaining time depends on which stage you're preparing for:

Physical test: Prioritize anything that needs advance scheduling — particularly vision and medical certification — well before the test date, since these can't be arranged the night before.
Written test: Subject-wise practice and past papers tend to be more effective than last-minute review. Work through KPPSC MCQs by subject, and use KPPSC Past Papers to understand question style and pacing before your date. Once you're comfortable with the basics, KPPSC Online Tests help build exam-day speed under timed conditions.
Interview: Review your academic background and stay current on relevant developments, since interviews typically follow the written or physical stage for eligible candidates.
