Hello there,
A signature issue on your GATE 2025 application, like a partially visible signature, could potentially create problems at the exam center, as it might not match with the signature you’ll provide during the exam.
Steps to Address the Issue
:
-
Contact GATE Authorities : Immediately reach out to the GATE helpdesk or the organizing institute's contact number/email. Explain the situation and request guidance on how to correct it.
-
Correction Window : Check if there is a correction window available for GATE applications. The organizing body usually provides a period during which you can correct certain details in your application, including signatures.
Carrying Documents
: On the exam day, carry valid ID proofs (like your Aadhaar, passport, etc.) where your signature is clearly visible. This can help in verifying your identity if any discrepancy arises.
Exam Day Precautions : Ensure that the signature you provide at the exam center matches your original signature on the ID proof. This consistency can help mitigate any issues.
While a partially visible signature might cause an issue, it’s not necessarily a deal-breaker if you address it promptly. Contact the authorities, make corrections if possible, and be prepared with proper ID on exam day.
I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.
Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.
Hello,
If only half of your signature is visible in the GATE 2025 application form, it could create an issue at the exam center, as discrepancies in documents may raise concerns during verification.
It's important to correct it before the exam to avoid potential problems. You can try to contact GATE authorities or your zonal GATE office immediately to report the issue. They may guide you on how to correct or update your form. Keeping a record of your communication with them and checking for updates in your application portal is also advisable.
Hope it helps !
