The provisional lists of admitted and excluded candidates for the selective process for fixed-term labor personnel of the General State Administration (AGE) have already been published. The Resolution of September 18, 2026, from the Under-Secretariat of the Ministry of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, includes the admitted and excluded candidates in the professional groups M3, M2, M1, E2 and E1, under the IV Collective Agreement for AGE. Any candidate who appears as excluded or who does not appear on the list has a very specific deadline to act: 10 business days from publication in the BOE.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution approves the provisional lists of admitted and excluded persons in the selective process for admission as fixed-term labor personnel of the AGE, both through the general system of open access and through internal promotion, in the professional groups regulated by the IV Collective Agreement.
The key operational aspects established by the regulation are as follows:
| Aspect | Detail |
|---|---|
| Published lists | Provisional lists of admitted and excluded for groups M3, M2, M1, E2 and E1 |
| Correction period | 10 business days from publication in the BOE (22/09/2026) |
| Correction channel | Portal administracion.gob.es |
| Who can correct | Candidates excluded or omitted from the provisional lists |
| Date of first exercise | November 28, 2026 |
| Venue | ETSIT Madrid, Av. Complutense, 30 |
| Morning shift (09:30 h) | Groups M1, E2 and E1 |
| Midday shift (12:30 h) | Groups M3 and M2 |
| Required material | Black or blue ink pen and identification document |
| Prohibited material | Electronic devices |
| Next step | Publication of final lists and opening of appeals period after the correction period |
The exercise held on November 28 is the first and only exercise of the opposition phase, which concentrates all evaluation in a single day. The original call was published by Resolution of July 6, 2026.
Economic and operational impact
For candidates, the immediate impact is operational and deadline-related: failing to act within the 10 business days from September 22 means losing the opportunity to correct the exclusion and, therefore, being permanently excluded from the selective process.
From the perspective of AGE organizations and HR departments, this resolution marks the beginning of the final stage of the process: the publication of final lists and the opening of the appeals period will follow the correction period, which implies additional administrative burden in the coming months.
For candidates who are admitted, the operational impact is clear: they must organize their travel to Madrid (ETSIT, Av. Complutense, 30) on November 28, in the shift corresponding to their group, and prepare the required material (black or blue ink pen and identification document) without carrying any electronic device.
Who does it affect?
- Candidates who applied for the AGE fixed-term labor personnel selective process in the professional groups M3, M2, M1, E2 and E1.
- Candidates applying through the open access system.
- AGE employees competing through internal promotion.
- Human Resources departments of the AGE responsible for managing the selective process.
- Advisors and managers who accompany candidates in public sector civil service processes.
Practical example
A candidate for group M2 who submitted their application in July 2026 accesses the provisional lists published on September 22 and finds that they appear as excluded due to a defect in the documentation provided.
They have 10 business days from September 22 to access the portal administracion.gob.es and correct the defect. If they do not act within that period, they will be excluded from the final lists and will not be able to take the exam on November 28.
If they correct properly, they will appear on the final lists and must attend on November 28 at 12:30 h (shift for M3 and M2) at ETSIT Madrid (Av. Complutense, 30), with a black or blue ink pen and their identification document, without carrying any electronic device.
What should candidates do now?
- Check the provisional lists published in the BOE of September 22, 2026 to verify if they appear as admitted, excluded or omitted.
- Act within the correction period if they appear excluded or omitted: access the portal administracion.gob.es and correct the defect within 10 business days from September 22. Failing to do so means being permanently excluded from the process.
- Confirm the exam shift according to the group they are applying for: 09:30 h for M1, E2 and E1; 12:30 h for M3 and M2.
- Prepare travel to ETSIT Madrid (Av. Complutense, 30) for November 28, 2026.
- Prepare required material: black or blue ink pen and identification document. Leave any electronic device at home, as it is expressly prohibited.
- Stay alert for the publication of final lists and the appeals period that will open after the correction period.
Frequently asked questions
Where can I check if I am admitted or excluded from the AGE 2026 provisional lists?
The provisional lists are published in the BOE of September 22, 2026. You can also access them through the administracion.gob.es portal, which is the same channel available for submitting corrections if you appear excluded or omitted.
How much time do I have to correct if I am excluded from the provisional lists?
You have 10 business days counted from publication in the BOE, that is, from September 22, 2026. After that period without correcting, the exclusion will be final and you will not be able to participate in the exam on November 28.
When and where is the AGE fixed-term labor personnel exam for groups M3, M2, M1, E2 and E1?
The first and only exercise of the opposition phase takes place on November 28, 2026 at ETSIT Madrid, Av. Complutense, 30. The morning shift (09:30 h) is for groups M1, E2 and E1; the midday shift (12:30 h) is for groups M3 and M2.
What do I need to bring to the exam and what is prohibited?
You must bring a black or blue ink pen and your identification document. It is expressly prohibited to enter with any type of electronic device.
When will the final lists be published and when can I file appeals?
The final lists will be published once the 10 business day correction period has ended. After that publication, the period for filing appeals will open. The resolution does not specify a specific date for these steps, so it is advisable to keep an eye on the BOE and the administracion.gob.es portal.
