Why It Matters for Uttarakhand Government Jobs
Many UKSSSC and UKPSC Group 'C' recruitments have an "Uttarakhand connection" rule. You must meet at least one of these conditions:
- Your name is registered at an employment office (employment exchange) in Uttarakhand by the last date of application, or
- you hold an Uttarakhand domicile / permanent residence certificate, or
- you passed High School and Intermediate from recognised institutions in Uttarakhand.
For example, the UKSSSC Technician Grade-II 2026 recruitment (open till 25 November 2026) and the UKPSC Tax and Revenue Inspector exam both list employment office registration as one of the options. People already in Uttarakhand government service do not need it. The exact wording differs between advertisements, so always read the one you are applying for.
Important: the rule usually says the registration must exist by the last date of application. If you plan to use it, register well before the last date. The online service shows a time limit of 3 days.
New Employment Registration: Documents
These are the documents the Apuni Sarkar service lists. Tick each one as you get it ready. Your list is saved on this device.
Required
- Applicant's photo
- Proof of date of birth, any one: Class 10 marksheet (if you studied beyond Class 10), transfer certificate (if below Class 10), or birth certificate / Aadhaar card (if you have no schooling)
- Uttarakhand domicile certificate (Sthayi Niwas Praman Patra) issued by the tehsil

Optional (upload if they apply to you)
- Professional or technical certificate, such as ITI, diploma, B.Ed, nursing or hotel management
- Local address proof, if your domicile is from another district: allotment letter, voter ID, passport, Aadhaar, driving licence or telephone bill

- Resume
Tip: Upload your ITI, diploma or other technical certificates too. Employment offices match registered candidates to vacancies by qualification, so a missing certificate means a missing match.
Officer flow (who checks your application)
- Applicant Submits the application online or at a CSC

- Card issued or rejected Download it from your login
This four-step flow is as shown in the service's "View Details" page on Apuni Sarkar.
