Signing in

Example

  • Name: Kumari Perera
  • DOB: 14 March 1990
  • NIC: 199012345678

Use your first name exactly as the ministry recorded it. If your password does not work, call DSU and they can read it to you.

How to apply — three steps

1

Check your details

Review your name, station, grade, and service dates. Correct anything that is wrong. Your name and SLMC number cannot be edited — contact DSU if those need fixing.

2

Choose your preferences

Search and select the stations you would accept. You must reach the minimum number shown on the page before you can submit. Position 1 is your most-wanted station.

3

Confirm & submit

Review your details and submit your application. You can edit and resubmit at any time while the window is open.
