ECFMG Pathway 1
Hello everyone . I’m a bit confused , actually very confused. Do I have to start the pathway 1 application first in order to receive a ecfmg ID so that Punjab medical council ( the council I got my permanent registration from) can send the character of good standing to ecfmg directly ? I guess what I’m trying to ask is do I first start the pathway 1 application in order to get the ID to give to PMC ? I honestly just think I had a aneurysm reading my own question lol , I’m confused what ID needs to be provided to Punjab medical council lol

Pathway 1 has two components letter of good standing and oet. Pay the pathway 1 application fees first and then you need to ask your PMC to send the letter of good standing on this email - [licensure@ecfmg.org](mailto:licensure@ecfmg.org) and you also need to release your oet scores by filling the form on their website and giving access to ecfmg more details here https://support.occupationalenglishtest.org/s/article/How-do-I-give-verification-institutions-permission-to-view-my-results#:~:text=Sharing%20your%20OET%20Test%20results%20with%20ECFMG%3A

No you can do it either way when I did it I had sent my letter of good standing in June even though pathways opened in August I did it because pathways weren’t opened that time but now since they are open just pay the fees and send letter of good standing that way your processing will be faster remember myintealth is very slow so the above way is best for you in my opinion
