A plain-language guide to understanding common PSC application statuses and the action each one may require.
Independent guide, not an official website
Nepal Docs Guide is not affiliated with the Government of Nepal. This guide helps you prepare, but official portals and offices control final rules, fees, forms, and timelines.

The decision point most people miss
Confirm whether the problem is form submission, payment, preliminary review, or final eligibility verification.
Avoid document shortcuts
Do not alter official records, hide mismatches, use fake certificates, share passwords or OTPs, or pay anyone who promises guaranteed approval outside the official process.
