If you have been invited for the CDCFIB physical screening and document verification, congratulations. This stage is a critical part of the recruitment process for the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB), and proper preparation can determine whether you move forward or get disqualified.
To avoid last-minute stress, it is important to attend the screening venue with all required original documents, as well as clear photocopies where applicable. Missing or invalid documents may automatically disqualify you from further consideration.
Below is a complete and simplified breakdown of all documents required for CDCFIB physical screening and document verification.
