My employment will cease before my PC validity ends. I have applied for a one-year PC. Why does the PC application fee remain the same?

Updated by SMC

The expiry date of a PC will always end on the last day of the year (i.e. 31 December), regardless of when the doctor applies for the PC.


Example: If a doctor applies for a one-year PC on 1 Jun 2021, his PC will expire on 31 Dec 2021. There is no proration of fee and he or she will need to pay the full application fee for a one-year PC.
