Updated: September 17, 2026. Ponta Grossa Public Competition 003/2026, covering several municipal jobs, has already gone through the fee waiver request, application, application confirmation and objective exam stages. On the official City Hall page, the latest listed act is Notice 008, dated September 14, with the preliminary answer key for the objective exam. The opening notice schedule provides for appeals against that answer key from September 15 to 17, 2026.
For candidates, the task now is to follow official acts by publication number and date, check their individual status in the organizer's portal and treat a future date as operational only after confirming that no amendment or specific call notice has changed it. The sequence below organizes what has already happened and what is still scheduled.

How to check the fee waiver and application status without relying on outdated information
- Start with the official competition page on the City Hall website. It works as a publication index. Check the notice number, description and date.
- Open the corresponding notice. For the fee waiver, the published milestones were the preliminary result on 07/24 and the final result on 08/10. For applications, acceptance was published on 08/21 and confirmation on 09/01.
- Check your individual status on Instituto UniFil. The organizer's page provides access to the restricted candidate area and a specific query for the application number and status.
- Keep relevant proof. Save the application receipt, payment proof when applicable, protocols and submitted files. This makes it easier to verify any discrepancy.
- If information conflicts, read the newest official act. Amendments and supplementary notices can change a rule or date from the original schedule. Do not use an old screenshot, search result or earlier news story as a substitute for the current notice.
Next stages scheduled in the opening notice
The dates below come from the scheduled timeline in the opening notice. They are useful for planning, but should be reconfirmed in new publications from City Hall and Instituto UniFil.
| Scheduled date | What to follow |
|---|---|
| 09/15 to 09/17/2026 | Appeal against the preliminary answer key |
| 10/16/2026 | Appeal responses, post-appeal answer key and preliminary objective exam result |
| 10/19 to 10/21/2026 | Appeals against the preliminary objective exam result |
| 10/27/2026 | Appeal responses, final objective exam result and calls for applicable later stages |
| 10/27 to 10/30/2026 | Submission of documents for the credentials evaluation for candidates covered by that stage |
| 11/01/2026 | Probable date indicated for the practical exam and psychological assessment, depending on the job and call notice |
| 11/24/2026 | Preliminary second-stage result for the practical exam and credentials evaluation |
| 11/25 to 11/27/2026 | Appeals against the preliminary second-stage result |
| 12/08/2026 | Appeal responses, final result and preliminary classification, except for Municipal Traffic Agent II |
| 12/09 to 12/11/2026 | Appeals against the preliminary classification, except for Municipal Traffic Agent II |
| 12/17/2026 | Final classification and confirmation scheduled for jobs that do not follow the specific Municipal Traffic Agent II calendar |
The Municipal Traffic Agent II position has additional stages. The specific section of the notice provides for a psychological assessment, Physical Fitness Test, social investigation and medical or dental assessment. For the fitness test, the notice indicates publication of the call list on December 29, 2026 and a probable test date of January 10, 2027. Because this position has its own rules, candidates should check the specific call notice before making travel or document preparations.
Not every candidate will take the same additional stages
The objective exam is the common stage, but the notice provides additional phases according to the job. A practical exam applies to the vehicle-driving and machinery-operation jobs identified in the notice. A credentials evaluation applies to defined groups of higher-education jobs. For Municipal Traffic Agent II, the process includes a psychological assessment, Physical Fitness Test, social investigation and medical or dental assessment.
Therefore, after the objective exam result, checking the classification alone is not enough. Candidates need to confirm whether their chosen job appears in a second-stage call and which documents, medical certificates or credentials will be required.
Checklist for following the notice without missing an update
- Bookmark the Ponta Grossa Public Competition 003/2026 page on the City Hall website.
- Bookmark the competition page on Instituto UniFil and keep access to the restricted candidate area.
- Always check the number and date of the latest published notice.
- Check for amendments before using a date from the original schedule.
- Compare your individual application status with published lists when necessary.
- After each result, immediately check whether there is an appeal period and which channel the notice specifies.
- Confirm whether the chosen job has a practical exam, credentials evaluation, psychological assessment, fitness test or another specific stage.
- Save important notices and receipts in a dedicated folder, with the date in the file name.
The key point for candidates following the competition now
Fee waiver and application are already past stages of Ponta Grossa Public Competition 003/2026. On September 17, the latest document officially listed is the preliminary answer key dated September 14, and the schedule identifies September 17 as the last day of the planned appeal period against that answer key. After that, the next major scheduled milestone is October 16, when the opening notice projects appeal responses, the post-appeal answer key and the preliminary objective exam result.
Use these dates as planning references, not as substitutes for new official publications. The practical rule is simple: at every stage, open the newest official act, confirm whether it keeps or changes the schedule, and only then prepare the next action.
