How to Register: Step by Step
- Open pmychromebooks.ibcc.edu.pk.
- Select your educational board.
- Enter your B-Form/CNIC number or roll/registration number (numbers only, no dashes) and your date of birth.
- Check that the name, school and marks shown match your record.
- Upload the four documents listed above.
- Review everything carefully, because the form cannot be edited after submission.
- Submit and save your reference number and the slip.
If Your Record Is Not Found
- Try again with your roll or registration number instead of the B-Form.
- Make sure you selected the correct board and entered your date of birth exactly as on the B-Form.
- If it still fails, your name may not be on the shortlist sent by the board. Contact your board or school administration in writing.
Last Date and Deadlines
IBCC does not show one national closing date. Deadlines are set board by board. BISE Lahore had set 19 October 2026, so Punjab students should check their own board notice and apply without delay. There is no fee: anyone asking for money is not part of the official process.
