NEET PG 2023: Following directions of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW), National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has again extended the cut-off date for completing the mandatory one-year internship for MBBS doctors to August 11, 2023. The board will also reopen the application window for NEET PG so that now eligible candidates can submit their forms.
“Desirous candidates who are completing their internship during 01.07.2023 to 11.08.2023 and are fulfilling all other criteria as prescribed in the information Bulletin of NEET-PG 2023 can apply for NEET-PG 2023 from 09.02.2023 (3PM onwards) to 12.02.2023 (till 11:55 PM).

Originally, the last date for completing MBBS internship cut-off, which is one of the eligibility criteria for taking NEET PG, was set as March 31. Following protests from doctors, it was extended to June 30. Now, it has been extended again.
In the notice dated February 7, NBEMS informed that the NEET PG application window will be opened February 9 (3 pm) to February 12 (11:55 pm) on natboard.edu.in.
