Requesting a change of Kerala PSC interview date

Kerala PSC publishes a procedure for changing an interview date: log in to your profile, open the Requests section, choose Request To Change Interview Date, state your reason and upload supporting documents. The request can be submitted from the point your interview memo is issued until the day before the interview. The Commission does not publish which reasons it accepts — each request is decided on its own.

Steps

  1. Open the Requests section of your profile

    The procedure is published at Procedure for interview date change requests. It is a profile function, not an email or a letter.

  2. Choose Request To Change Interview Date

    The request type is named explicitly in the Requests dashboard. Use it rather than any general grievance route.

  3. State the reason and attach your documents

    The form takes a description of the reason and supporting documents. Attach the evidence — a medical document, for instance — rather than describing it only in words.

  4. Submit within the window

    The request can be submitted from the time your interview memo is issued up to the day before the interview date. There is no published provision for a request made on or after the day itself.

  5. Do not assume approval

    The Commission does not publish a list of grounds it accepts, so no one can honestly tell you your reason will be granted. Submit early, keep attending to the original date until you are told otherwise, and do not treat a pending request as permission to be absent.

Frequently asked questions

Can a Kerala PSC interview date actually be changed?#

Yes. The Commission publishes a procedure: a Request To Change Interview Date submitted through the Requests section of your own profile, with a reason and supporting documents.

How late can I request a change?#

Up to the day before the interview. The window opens when your interview memo is issued.

Which reasons does Kerala PSC accept?#

The Commission does not publish a list. Requests are decided individually, so treat any site that promises a medical reason is automatically accepted as guessing.

What happens if I simply do not attend?#

Kerala PSC does not publish a general rule on the consequence of interview absence in the material we examined. Because that is not published, use the request mechanism rather than relying on an assumption.
