CBSE KVS / NVS Tier III Interview Letter 2026

CBSE KVS / NVS Tier III Interview Letter 2026 — a certificate verification schedule — is summarised below. The key figures are an application window closing 11 December 2025 and a fee of ₹2,800 for unreserved candidates. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

Applications open on 14 November 2025 and close on 11 December 2025, giving candidates 28 days to complete the process. The 28-day window is comfortable, though last-day traffic still causes portal failures every cycle — applying in the first half avoids it. Fee payment closes on 11/12/2025 — note that this can fall on a different day from the form deadline, and an unpaid form is not a submitted form. The exam is currently shown for 10-11 January 2026; treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

The minimum age for this recruitment is 18 years.

Fee-paying categories are charged between ₹500 and ₹2,800, depending on category. Payment is accepted via debit card, credit card, net banking, and offline bank challan. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

Document verification is where otherwise-successful candidates most often fall out, usually over a missing category certificate or a name mismatch across documents. Assemble originals plus self-attested photocopies well before the date, and get any discrepancy in spelling or date of birth corrected in advance — it cannot be resolved on the day.
