Hello,

If you have made an error of place of birth, while filling the application form, and it was not possible to correct it in the correction window, here are the steps and considerations:

Steps to Correct the Error:

  • Contact the Authorities: You need to directly contact the helpline or support team of the exam or counseling authority. They may put you through the procedure for the manual correction.
  • Present to Provide Documentation of Accuracy: Be prepared, if so required, with a birth certificate, passport, or any other government-issued documentation establishing the actual place of birth.
  • Compose Form Letter or Email: Write explaining the error and include supporting documentation. This should be submitted through proper channels.

At Counseling:

  • Most counseling authorities double-check names, date of birth, and category. Wrong entry of place of birth can rarely be a determining factor except as specifically required.
  • Original documents should be carried during verification for any discrepancies.

Possible Outcomes:

  • In case not rectified, there would be confusion and /or delay at the time of verification of documents. It must be cleared before counseling.
  • Go to the official counseling guidelines or call their support for further information.
