UPSC EPFO APFC Recruitment Test on 20 December 2026
The Story in Brief
The Union Public Service Commission has scheduled the EPFO Assistant Provident Fund Commissioner recruitment test for 20 December 2026. The offline pen-and-paper examination will be held to shortlist candidates for the interview round under Special Advertisement No. 52/2026.
The drive aims to fill 80 APFC vacancies in the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation under the Ministry of Labour and Employment. The online application window closed on 11 September 2026.
UPSC has not yet announced the admit card release date. Candidates are advised to monitor the official website upsc.gov.in for hall ticket notifications and further instructions.
Indian Opinion Analysis
With 80 vacancies and a closed application window, the sole remaining milestone for candidates is the admit card, which UPSC has yet to announce. The two-stage selection means the 20 December test score alone does not decide the final list, those shortlisted will still face an interview. Until the hall ticket is released, candidates have no concrete administrative step beyond checking upsc.gov.in routinely. The gap between notification and test gives four months of preparation time, but the lack of an admit card date leaves a waiting period that could stretch close to the exam.
