The answer key covers 19 different posts examined on 31 October and 1 November 2026 under recruitment notifications 07/2022 and 04/2023.
Overview
NEIAFMR conducted a two-day OMR-based written examination to select candidates for multiple positions across healthcare, administrative, and support categories. The answer key has been published as a 19-page PDF document, with each page dedicated to a single post.

Withdrawn Questions
An important point for candidates who appeared for the Physiotherapist post: questions 66 and 67 have been withdrawn from the official answer key and scoring. Question 66 was found to be a duplicate of Question 18, and Question 67 was a duplicate of Question 19. Candidates must exclude these two questions when calculating their expected marks.
Understanding Your Score
To calculate your estimated score, count the number of correct answers you have marked according to the official answer key. For the Physiotherapist post, do not count questions 66 and 67. If the examination has a marking scheme (e.g., +1 for correct, −0.25 for wrong, 0 for unanswered), apply it to arrive at your total. Remember that this is an estimated score; the official result will be released by NEIAFMR after any grievances are resolved.
How to Download and Verify Your Answer Key
- Visit the official NEIAFMR website or download the answer key directly from the Answer Key PDF link.
- Open the PDF and navigate to the page corresponding to your post (refer to the table above for page numbers).
- Review all 100 questions and answers listed on your post's page.
- Compare each answer you marked during the examination with the official answer key. Use a checklist or tally sheet to track correct and incorrect responses.
- Calculate your estimated score using the marking scheme provided in the examination instructions (if any).
- If you believe any answer in the key is incorrect, prepare your objection with clear reasoning before filing a grievance.

The official results will then be prepared and declared.
