@Sandip_burnwal yes u need it many times they don't accept it in interview stage then it would cause problem to you and you might be rejected in interview stage
Aditya, didn't they give time to students this year for getting certificate?
I am no knight. Do not call me Sir
After financial year in my EWS there is a clerical error ....70000 is mentioned and i have mentioned the registration no. This certificate only but all the others criterias are as per the notification ...... financial year is also acc to notification just a typing mistake .... Now what should i do.... Should apply for a new one ... If i get new one will i be able to correct it in the correction window
Actually I have not received my EWS certificate due to some issue. So I filled with general category. It will take approximately 7-8 days. So can I modify it after the correction window opens?Category,u can't change.
You can try after correction window. They could allow changing the category as well. You can also register with another email and mobile and apply with ews details. In case you can't get EWS certificate, use the general wala admit card
@Neyawn @DM Sir I have uploaded photo along with date and name.
BUT in the photo I have little beard. (not long) But I do have some.Now they say that we should go clean shaved in Interview.So is it something to worry about ?
Are they really not going to allow someone just because I had a slight beard ?
This is the first time they are doing it. Minor changes will not be a problem. In one year, anyway the face will change a bit.
Do not worry about it.
Sir, Thank you for your clarification.
However, I had just checked that they will allow us to update the photograph.
I am thinking of updating it with a clean shave (Perhaps for my peace of mind & also to avoid showing negligence while filling out the form.) P.S. will attach a photo uploaded for your reference.Query below the photo!
Query w.r.t updating/correcting is:Will the date when I update the form (say 6 March) be considered the submission date or the date on which I submitted the original form (14 Feb)?My query is based on the presumption thatif the form is filled on a later date we get the center farther away(so, if you have any insights on this, I request you to share them too).
Thank You In Advance
