The announcement, posted on the Ministry’s official Facebook page on February 21, 2026, initially indicated that results for all categories would be published on March 4, 2026, raising anticipation among applicants nationwide.
However, when candidates accessed the Centralised Services E-Recruitment Portal (C-SERP), a notice appeared indicating that results would be released after the specified date.
The portal explained that test submissions, proctoring analyses, and assessments are still in progress, emphasising that results would follow once these processes are completed.
The update has caused some confusion among applicants, some of whom posted on Facebook after expecting the results to be available on the originally communicated date.

"Dora Esinam, I think they said the publication is 4th right?"
Charles Ayikpa shared:
"They didn't say 4th. It's after 4th."
Boshyeba Isaac replied to his fellow user:
"Charles Ayikpa, they stated don't challenge, on their preface, it says publication of results will be on 4th March 2026. But now, when you track your application, it was "after 4th".
Jerome Humble Dorleku commented:
"Then I guess the sentence they put across there is saying. Results publication is 4th, shouldn't be like that, but well, 4th March ends at 11:59 pm."
Scofield Muzic added:
"Ministry of the Interior, Ghana, we are still waiting as you promised. You said publication of results will be on the 4th. Today is the 4th. Please don't change the narrative. After 4th can be 10 years, right? Please don't play with our minds. Let your words be solid."
Justice Kwesi Quarshie wrote:
"They're giving us sleepless nights."
Konlan Patrick commented:
"Okay, have a great day and stay positive!"
