3. What is the application process?
The process has two parts. First, candidates must apply online through the official PHEC website. After completing the online form, they must print it, sign it, and attach the required documents. The complete set, along with the original fee deposit slip, must then be sent by courier or post to the PHEC office in Lahore. Both steps are mandatory.

Applicants must include a signed copy of the application form, a copy of their CNIC, domicile, educational certificates, experience letters, and the original bank challan or fee deposit slip. Missing documents can lead to rejection of the application.
