@Neyawn my mother is a homemaker but she receives a rental income of a few lakhs. So should I mention that she has an income even though she is a homemaker!? Would that be contradictory as per panelists

"address/HQ of company?"

Do not write fancy things. Be as old school as possible.

Keep Calm and focus on the exam. Nothing will happen. As long as you are eligible. For safety, Send a letter to UPSC or email and keep a copy and keep a receipt of the Speed Post and a copy of the letter.

Mere bhai open category ke ho toh pitaji ki income me b 0 bhar doge toh b unko koi farak ni padta.  Sab chalta hai upsc k form me, till the time basics me galti nai ki hai.

@Neyawn DAF only asks, 'Place of Employment'......Sorry if I was not clear earlier, should I just write it as Remote Work(mine was completely remote work-not even visited office once and this was way back in 2015-18, not now)

I have filled obc ncl as my father is in Group c (inspector ) .His salary right now is 10 lakh. But salary is not included in the income .(confirmed from upsc ).

My doubt :" is property  also the criteria for creamy layer" .Can it be problem in later stages of exam?

I have same doubt. 


Is land criteria included in OBC Creamy Layer? As far as I know it's not. But anyone?

@Neyawn  Sir i worked at CBIC as inspector for 2 months.

Other than that i dont have any employment history.I am self employed since last 3 years.


Should i mention my employment at CBIC?


Will.it create negative efffect in interview ?

@Neyawn Sir, I have uploaded OBC non creamy layer certificate but missed attaching OBC undertaking. Is mailing to UPSC enough? Please suggest.


Update: Called UPSC helpdesk, they replied that nothing to worry. If I qualify for interview, I need to take undertaking form then. For now, mailing them is enough.

query related to daf:-
1) although I have appeared for NDA, CDS, SCRA in the past(around 2008,2010,2011), I don't remember the date, month, or year of examination with certainty. What should I do?
2)I have resigned from my previous employment in 2016(public sector bank) but have not yet received a relieving certificate, so what date should I mention as the last date of working in the employment status. Moreover, those who have resigned should also fill the records or it is only for them who are still in the job?
 3) There is no certificate number as such mentioned in my degree- only date, registration number is given- so if I fill registration number as certificate number will it suffice?

please answer
