FMGE 2024: NMC releases advisory for online application for Eligibility Certificate

The applications should preferably be filled by the candidate himself and should ideally avoid proxy, said the NMC advisory.

FMGE 2024: The National Medical Commission has released an advisory regarding FMGE 2024 online application for the Eligibility Certificate. The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences has tentatively scheduled the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) Screening Test in June 2024.

"As per the requirements, the candidates who are required to have the eligibility certificate are not permitted to apply for the Screening Test without the Eligibility Certificate issued by the National Medical Commission," said NMC's statement.

The Commission said that the online portal for applying for an Eligibility Certificate will be opened shortly and notified through a separate Public Notice. Candidates are advised to regularly visit the website of the National Medical Commission (NMC).

NMC suggests measures to avoid mistakes while applying for the Eligibility Certificate 

The following are the measures suggested by NMC:

• The applications should preferably be filled by the candidate himself and should ideally avoid proxy for making applications for EC.
• The candidates are also advised to keep their documents handy before filling application for EC; it would be ideal if the entries to be made were verified vis-a-vis entries in the original documents;
• The candidates should provide their active mobile numbers so that alerts/deficiencies can reach them directly for rectification to obviate any delay in rectification. It may also be ensured that once the deficiency is conveyed only the deficiency should be rectified by the respective candidate as expeditiously as possible to avoid last minute rush; and
• Candidates shall scrupulously check entries and ensure conformity with the details in the original documents to ensure quick processing/approval of applications if otherwise eligible
