Documents to Gather Before You Start
Collect all of these before opening the registration form. Upload failures mid-form are the most common reason for incomplete applications.

Possession document — proof that you physically occupy and control the plot. Income proof — salary slip or bank statement for the last six months. Passport-size photographs — two to four, blue or white background. Utility bill — electricity or gas bill in your name or an immediate family member’s name.

Each uploaded file must be in JPG, PNG, or PDF format. Maximum file size is 1MB per document. Take documents in good natural light before photographing them on your phone. Blurry or dark uploads delay field verification.

What to Do When Something Goes Wrong
Application rejected or showing “Not Eligible”
Log in to your account and check which section flagged the rejection. The three most common causes are: PMT score above 60, plot size above the limit, or blurry document uploads. If your PMT score in the NSER system is wrong, visit your nearest NSER data collection center with your CNIC and ask for a score correction. After the correction is processed, reapply in the next registration phase.
Documents failed to upload
Each file must be in JPG, PNG, or PDF format and under 1MB. On a basic Android phone, photograph documents outdoors in daylight for the clearest result. If the portal times out during upload, try again in early morning before 9am or after 10pm — traffic on the portal is lowest at those times.
Status not updating after months
Field verification by PHATA staff takes one to three months. If your status has not changed after three months, file a complaint at acag.punjab.gov.pk under the “Complaints / Support” section. Enter your CNIC, tracking ID, and a brief description of the problem. A complaint reference number is issued on screen. Keep it until your case is closed. You can also call <a href=”tel:080009100″>0800-09100</a> to follow up on a stuck application.
Portal not loading
The ACAG portal receives high traffic after government announcements. Wait two to three hours and try again. If the problem continues over several days, call the helpline at <a href=”tel:080009100″>0800-09100</a> for technical support.
