How to apply for PPSC Auqaf jobs 2026
PPSC takes applications online only. These steps follow its official step-by-step procedure:
- Open the PPSC jobs page. The “Apply Online” button on the PPSC home page opens the same list.
- Under Advertisement No. 09/2026, click your post. Auqaf posts show “Punjab Auqaf Organization” as the department; for example, Medical Officer is Case No. 12M2026 and Staff Nurse is 18M2026.
- Read the post details and click Proceed. Read the Important Instructions and the E-Pay User Manual, tick the undertaking and click Apply Online.
- Enter your CNIC number, then your email address and mobile number, and verify them. Use your own, because PPSC does not let you change them later.
- Fill in your date of birth, gender, employment type, disability status and personal information, and save.
- The system gives you a PSID (Payment System Identifier). Pay the Rs 600 fee against it, as explained below.
- Upload a recent colour photograph on a white background and the front of your CNIC, as small JPG files. Check PPSC’s photograph requirements first.
- Add your qualifications, and your service record if you have one.
- Read the undertaking and click Submit Application. You get an Application Number, plus an email and SMS with a token number for editing or printing.
Each post needs its own application and fee. You can edit until the closing date, and entering your CNIC again resumes an unfinished form. The Auqaf section of the ad does not ask for a hard copy, but keep your originals and two sets of photocopies ready for the interview. Our PPSC online apply guide explains more.
Documents you need
PPSC’s eligibility and scrutiny guidance for these posts asks for originals of:
- Valid CNIC
- Matric and Intermediate certificates, plus your degree or diploma with detailed marks certificates (PPSC does not accept CGPA alone)

Need a domicile first? See our Punjab domicile online guide.
Application fee
The PPSC jobs page shows a fee of Rs 600 for each Auqaf post. The fee is per post, so two posts means paying twice. Pay with your 17-digit PSID under the GoPb biller in bill payments, at a 1Link member bank ATM or branch counter, through internet or mobile banking, or with JazzCash, Easypaisa or UPaisa.
PPSC does not accept the old challan form 32-A, bank drafts, pay orders or cheques. The fee is non-refundable. Specially abled persons do not have to pay it. For payment problems, use PPSC’s complaint system at ppsc.gop.pk/cmsnew.
Selection process
- Most posts have a one-paper multiple-choice test of 100 marks and 90 minutes, with all questions from your own qualification: MBBS for Medical Officer and Medical Specialist, General Nursing and Midwifery for Staff Nurse, BSc Civil or Mechanical Engineering for the engineers, and DAE (Civil, Mechanical or Electrical) for the Sub Engineers.
- For the Laboratory, Dental and ECG Technician posts, the ad says the syllabus will be uploaded on the PPSC website later. It was not there on 15 September 2026. No syllabus is printed for Anaesthetist.
- PPSC cuts 0.25 marks for each wrong answer, and the pass mark is 40%. The top candidates, normally 5 per post, are called for interview, where the pass mark is 50%.
- Your documents are checked in detail at the interview, and an ineligible candidate is rejected even then.
PPSC has uploaded a job description for each post. For example, a Staff Nurse handles total patient care, vital signs, IV lines and safe medication.
