  1. hii in jee mains form i fill the whole adress in the place of house no. so in admit card there’s a twice time adress written now what to do is there create any problem during counselling

    1. Hi Ravindra
      This might not create any kind of problem as this is just a minor mistake. However, you can still confirm it by contacting the NTA helpdesk.

  2. hello, in my adhaar card my surname comes first but in my 10th admit card my last name comes first. will it be of any issue?

    1. Hello, this won’t create any issue. As per NTA’s JEE Main 2026 FAQ, name mismatches between Aadhaar and Class 10 marksheet won’t affect your candidature.

  3. I have already submitted application successfully with aadhar id, but I got prompt that name is mismatch. Now aadhar name is updated according to 10 class. Can I re enter aadhar number during edit window. Will it allow me to do so.

    1. Aadhaar details cannot be modified at this stage. Please wait for the NTA one-time correction facility: if Aadhaar edits are permitted then you may update the number. For immediate assistance, reach out to the NTA helpdesk.

  4. What should be filled in candidates name if it differs from Aadhar
    Ex 10 th certificate has first name and last name
    Adhaar has first name middle name last name. I had contacted to NTA they told me to update aadhar or you can make affidavit showing that 10th marksheet and andhar name is belongs to single and same person. So is it really works Or at the time of exam will any issue create.?

    1. Fill the form using your Class 10 marksheet name. Small differences in Aadhaar (like an added middle name) won’t lead to any issues, as per the latest NTA clarification.

  5. Hi, My son’s biometric is not yet updated in aadhar though we have applied long back. We have been advised to enter the 14 digit aadhar acknowledgement & proceed. But we don’t find this option in the Form. Can u guide please?

    1. The JEE Main form doesn’t accept Aadhaar update acknowledgement number. Since the biometric update is pending, please contact NTA support so they can guide you on the correct way to proceed.

    1. The address doesn’t need to match exactly. JEE uses Aadhaar only to confirm your identity. As long as your name and date of birth match, a slightly different address won’t cause any issue.

  6. What should be filled in candidates name if it differs from Aadhar
    Ex 10 th certificate has first name and last name
    Adhaar has first name middle name last name

    1. You are advised to correct the document that has extra or missing parts of your name. After both documents match, fill the same name in the JEE form.

  7. Hi sir, my identity proof verified ok but the below msg showed as name mismatch with 10 th certificate. ( There was no initial mentioned after name in aadhar )
    Now I updated my adhaar but not able to verify with jee application again.
    Kindly suggest what to do? May i apply one more application?

    1. Hello, this happens due to a name mismatch between Aadhaar and your Class 10 certificate. Since you’ve updated Aadhaar, wait 24–48 hours and try again. Don’t apply again. If it still doesn’t verify, fix it during the correction window or contact NTA helpdesk.
