The Ministry of the Interior has issued an important update regarding the 2026 recruitment medical screening exercise for applicants across the country. This announcement provides clarity on the screening schedule and warns candidates to be cautious of fraudulent messages.
No Official SMS Has Been Sent Yet
The Ministry has made it clear that no SMS notifications have been sent to applicants concerning the medical screening. Any message currently circulating that requests payment or provides screening details should be treated as fraudulent.
Official SMS notifications will only be sent within the period of 29th to 31st March 2026. Applicants are advised to wait for messages within this timeframe before taking any action.
Medical Screening Start Date
The medical screening exercise is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, 7th April 2026. The process will take place at designated centers across all regions in Ghana.
All applicants are encouraged to prepare adequately and ensure they follow only official instructions.
Important Instructions for Applicants
To ensure safety and avoid falling victim to scams, applicants should take note of the following:
All official SMS messages will be sent through the authorized sender ID CSERP
Applicants must ignore messages from unknown or suspicious sources
Payments should only be made through the official recruitment portal
Verify Your Status Before Payment
Before proceeding with any payment, applicants must confirm that their status on the recruitment portal has changed from Qualified to Medical Screening.
Failure to verify this update may lead to unnecessary loss of money through fraudulent activities.
No Direct Payments Allowed
The Ministry has emphasized that no applicant is required to send money to any mobile money number. Any request for such payments is a clear sign of fraud and should be ignored.
Reporting Fraudulent Activities
