JEE Main 2022: NTA cancels facility of corrections in submitted application forms

NTA will not provide JEE Main application correction facility at any stage of the examination. Candidates need to be careful while filling the details in the application form.

The National Testing Agency has released the application forms for JEE Mains 2022 first session exam. Candidates can fill the application forms only in online mode from the official website jeemain.nta.nic.in. In a major change brought up by the NTA in the application process, candidates will not be able to make any corrections in the application form once submitted.

NTA has clearly mentioned in the information bulletin of JEE Main 2022 that “Candidates are requested to fill in the Application Form very carefully. No corrections will be permitted once the Application Form is submitted.”Candidates are thus advised to fill all the details in the application form correctly as they will not be able to edit them in later stages.

Filling the application form of JEE Main is a three-step process that includes Registration, Filling personal details, Uploading scanned documents and Payment of application fees. Candidates can complete all the stages of the application process at the same time one-by-one or complete the registration part initially and other stages at a later time.

What documents are required to fill application form

Candidates need to have certain documents that are required for filling the application form. The list includes:

• Class 10 mark sheet

• Class 12 certificate/mark sheet (If passed)

• Scanned image of passport size photo and signature

• Scanned documents of PwD/Gen-EWS/OBC-NCL/SC/ST (If applicable)

• Credit/debit card or internet banking details for fee payment

• Aadhaar

Important points related to documents

• Candidates who do not have PwD/Gen-EWS/OBC-NCL/SC/ST certificates need to upload the “Self Declaration/Undertaking” in the format mentioned in the information bulletin.

• Filling Aadhaar details are not mandatory. Candidates can provide details of the Aadhaar or opt not to.

• Candidates need to provide details of a valid and working email ID and mobile number. All future communication related to JEE Main 2022 exam will be sent to the email/mobile number.

Steps involved in filling form

• First stage of the application process is registration. In this stage, candidates will be required to enter basic details like name, email ID, mobile number, address

• After registration, candidates will proceed to fill the detailed application form. In this stage, candidates will have to fill in information about educational qualifications, exam centre preference etc.

• After filling the form, candidates will have to upload scanned documents of photo, signature and other documents

• Last date of the application process in payment of application fees. Candidates need to pay the application fee online.

Can I fill another application form in case of mistakes in first form

Candidates are advised not to fill multiple application forms. If any candidate fill more than one application form, NTA will cancel the application form and his/her candidature can be rejected. It is thus strongly advised to fill only one application form.

What to do in case incorrect details entered in the application form

While NTA has not provided any solution to this, the best advice is to fill the application form with utmost care and not make any mistakes while filling the form. Although NTA has mentioned that no correction facility will be provided, there are chances that the correction window will be opened. Candidates can also write to the NTA through email regarding their queries.
