The development follows an earlier announcement by the government, through the Ministry of the Interior, outlining a schedule for the release of results for the various recruitment categories.

According to the timeline, results for all applicants were expected to be released between March 4 and March 9, 2026. Within that period, candidates across the different categories were to check their status on the recruitment portal to determine whether they had qualified for the next stage of the process.

However, as of Tuesday, March 10, 2026, a number of applicants from Categories A, B and C say they are yet to receive their results. Many claim their status on the C-SERP recruitment portal still reads “pending,” leaving them uncertain about their progress in the exercise.

The situation has triggered widespread discussion online, with applicants sharing their frustrations and seeking clarity on the status of their applications.
