WHAT IS THE DEPARTMENTAL PERMISSION CERTIFICATE?

This is basically a ‘No Objection Certificate’ from the parent department of a candidate already in government service to appear in a competitive examination for a post of BS-16 or above (including CSS and S.O. promotional examination) advertised by the Federal Public Service Commission. The form can be downloaded from the following link:

WHO SHOULD SUBMIT THE DEPARTMENTAL PERMISSION CERTIFICATE?

The candidates who are serving under Federal / Provincial / Semi-Government / Government / Corporation / Autonomous departments, holding temporary / permanent / adhoc / contract / daily wages post are required, as per Rules, to submit the Departmental Permission Certificate from their respective department along with their application form for CSS or any post of BPS-16 or above advertised by the Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC).

WHY SUBMIT THE D.P.C.?

Submission of D.P.C. ensures the following:

1. The parent department shall be bound to relieve the candidate upon selection. In case, the candidate has not submitted the DPC, the department reserves the right to not relieve the candidate and even initiate disciplinary proceedings.

2. Submission of DPC is a must for the proper channel application procedure. This procedure ensures the safety of the already payable pay and perks of a government servant.

[Example: A person served 3 years in BPS-16 at a government department. His pays, allowances and other perks would be more than the initial pay admissible to BPS-17 CSP. DPC ensures that the pay the candidate would get after selection is not less than the one he is drawing.]

3. Calculation and Continuation of Service: DPC ensures that the period a government servant served in the department is not wasted. This tenure shall be calculated in his total service afterwards.

4. Pension Contribution: On completion of service, superannuation or voluntary retirement, the department, in which the candidate would have initially served, shall provide the pension contribution.

i am punjab govt. servant of BS-17 and i have applied online for CSS.i have a query here that whether we have sent DP along with CSS application or we can send it latter mean after closing date??????i have already move application for DP but it seems to me that it may take a long time

sir what is meant by the last para withholding applications ?

I have applied for NOC to my department for both the PMS CSS exams SEPARATELY in case if they get late in giving the nocs would my application be rejected , i am nervous about the fact what is my position even i get merit position will i not be selected

kppsc person told me to take out the noc page and if you get selected then you can ask for noc in the back date ,my CEO also told me the same

but I have applied through proper channel but I am worried if NOC is not given shall i then resign ?? can be my application the eligible if in case my department does allow me for noc and i resign from my current post

Yes you can send the application form without DPC. Your department will forward the DPC to FPSC on their own or would hand it over to you. In case of later, you should as soon as possible dispatch the original after retaining a xeroxed copy for record. FPSC would ask for missing documents, if any, during the scrutiny of your application form.

Regards

The last paragraph provides that some departments may initially withhold an application of a candidate but at a later stage forward it (government servants often send an advance copy of application and another through their department for proper channel). The reference is to those applications. Once a department decides as to whether forward or withhold the application of an employee would be considered final.

Your case is different. You shouldn't worry about it. I am sure you will be provided with the DPC. In practice, government departments usually permit their employees to appear in the competitive examination.

sir I frankly speaking my case is complex ,i made both applications for NOC through proper channel but my immediate senior in gr 19 is giving me departmental permission certificate

i cant understand becz i think only appointing authority can give NOC

hes making delay tactics ,like i asked me about my noc today so office person told me application has been tcs to your home address ,but i still have not got those applications

then upon my further inquiry they told application has come back becoz your home address was not complete

such kinds of thing, I just want to ask you that what should I do in such scenario ; i have left with very less time fr preparation ,our DG (appointing authority ) sits in rwlpindi , director sits in lahore , my station is in other city though my immediate senior has given NOC BUT HE IS IN 19 GRADE further i have not yet received my applications at home address

so what should I do , just concetrate at my studies at this time ?

if i get successfull in written exam then CAN I RESIGN from my current job in that case would still i required NOC ? or my application wold be rejected ??

Is the DPC provided by your senior on the prescribed form? If yes, then simply submit it with your application. DO KEEP A COPY OF THE SAME FOR FUTURE REFERENCE AND RECORD. Your emphasis should be on your preparations. Give a damn to the officer who is hurdling the formal DPC. Once appointed InshaAllah they would not matter.

Once again concentrate on your preparations.

Regards

thanks a lot sir,yes he had filled the prescribed form which was to be filled and given to FPSC directly by the department
it was in the prescribed form to send it directly to FPSC ,which they are sending me instead , from last 6 days

but i am sure some hurdle will be made

after your advice I have left calling my office ,wasting time in thinking about the NOC , and just focusing on studies now if I got good marks and position FPSC would not reject me on simple NOC matter, they understand our system, I have now left this matter to Allah

secondly I have already submitted my applications ,in regional fpsc and kppsc ; i have not with me my applications right now to which i can attach NOC

regards
