I noticed many people on this forum asking the same question recently:
“Has CDCFIB shortlist come out?”
or
“How do I check if my name is on the CDCFIB shortlist?”
I actually applied for the Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board recruitment, so I decided to check my status properly instead of relying on WhatsApp messages and random screenshots people were sharing.
Here is what I discovered.
The CDCFIB Shortlist Was Released for the CBT Stage
From what I confirmed, the CDCFIB shortlist for the Computer-Based Test (CBT) stage was released around October 2025 through the official recruitment portal.
Many applicants did not notice immediately because the board usually releases updates quietly on the portal.
If you applied for any of these agencies, you should check:
Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS)
Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC)
Federal Fire Service (FFS)
Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS)
All of them fall under the CDCFIB recruitment process.
How I Checked My CDCFIB Shortlist Status
This is exactly what I did.
I went to the official recruitment portal
Logged in using the email and password I used during application
Opened my application dashboard
Checked the notification section
If you are shortlisted, the portal normally shows the CBT exam invitation or instructions for the next stage.
Some people also download the shortlist PDF and search for their names.
Important Warning for Applicants
While trying to confirm my status, I noticed many fake CDCFIB shortlist links circulating online.
Some WhatsApp messages were even asking people to pay money to “secure their slot”.
Please note:
CDCFIB recruitment is free
The board does not ask for payment to shortlist candidates
Only the official recruitment portal should be used
So be careful.
Where I Found a Clear Guide
While searching for the correct steps, I came across a guide that explains how to check the CDCFIB shortlist and download the PDF list.
If you applied and want to confirm your status, you can check it here:
https://smartafricaguide.com/cdcfib-shortlist/
It explains the portal login process and the steps to check whether your name appears on the shortlist.
What Happens After the Shortlist
From what I understand, the next stages normally include:
Computer Based Test (CBT)
Document verification
Physical screening
However, updates about the screening stage have been delayed, so applicants should keep checking the portal for announcements.
Final Advice
If you applied for the CDCFIB recruitment, it is worth checking the portal to see whether your name appears on the shortlist.
Many people are still waiting for updates, and recruitment processes like this sometimes move slowly.
If anyone here has already written the CBT exam or received further instructions, please share your experience so others can learn from it.
