Family Card Data Collector Application Deadline Extended to 28 July

The Department of Social Services has extended the application deadline for data collectors and supervisors under the "Family Card" program to 12:00 PM on 28 July. This decision outlined in a directive by Director General Shah Mohammad Mahbub accommodates unavoidable delays and adverse weather conditions affecting several regions.

All applications—both new and previously submitted—will undergo verification and evaluation, with the final list of selected candidates slated for publication by 30 July. Local recruitment committees are granted the flexibility to either temporarily suspend ongoing assessments to test all applicants jointly, or proceed with current schedules and arrange separate exams for new applicants at a later date.

Crucially written tests are strictly prohibited in this recruitment process. Instead candidates will be assessed solely through practical and oral examinations alongside an evaluation of their academic GPA in accordance with approved manpower distribution guidelines.

Once the final list is published revised training schedules will be communicated to the selected candidates. The Department has urged all committee chairpersons and relevant officials to strictly adhere to these instructions to guarantee the smooth transparent and timely rollout of the Family Card program.
