NTA said on 30 October 2026 that candidates who made errors in the JEE (Main) 2027 Session 1 form can submit a fresh form till 22 November 2026. This applies to candidates who have already generated an Application Number or paid the fee.
What this means for you
If you made a mistake while filling the JEE Main 2027 Session 1 form, you can fill a new form. Remember that the fee already paid will not be refunded and you will have to pay again. If you only need to correct some details, use the correction facility from 27 to 29 November 2026 instead of a fresh form.
Key facts
- A fresh form can be submitted till 22 November 2026 up to 11:50 PM.
- From 23 to 26 November 2026, forms can be submitted with a late fee.
- The earlier fee will neither be refunded nor adjusted against the fresh form.
- The correction facility for changing details is open from 27 to 29 November 2026.
- Appearing in the exam with more than one Application Number in the same session will be treated as Unfair Means (UFM).
What has happened
NTA issued a public notice on 30 October 2026. It said that several candidates had written to NTA about errors made while filling the online application form for JEE (Main) 2027 Session 1. In the interest of candidates, NTA has decided to allow them to submit a fresh application form, even if they have already generated an Application Number or paid the examination fee.
This notice comes after an earlier public notice dated 24 October 2026.
Who is covered
The facility is for candidates who have filled the JEE (Main) 2027 Session 1 form and made a mistake in it. A new Application Number will be generated for each fresh form. All details, including photograph, signature and documents, must be entered and uploaded again.
Which form will be valid
According to NTA, only the last form for which the examination fee has been successfully paid and the Confirmation Page generated will be considered valid. If a candidate submits a fresh form but does not complete the fee payment and generate the Confirmation Page, the earlier form for which these steps were completed will remain valid.
What about the fee
The examination fee paid against an earlier form will neither be refunded nor adjusted against the fresh application. In other words, the fee has to be paid again for the fresh form.
What are the dates
A fresh application must be completed, including fee payment, on or before 22 November 2026 up to 11:50 PM. From 23 November 2026 to 26 November 2026 up to 11:50 PM, forms can be submitted with a late fee.
If you only need to correct details
Candidates who only need to amend certain details are advised to use the correction facility instead of submitting a fresh form. This facility is available from 27 November 2026 to 29 November 2026.
Rule on multiple forms
Submitting multiple application forms does not entitle a candidate to appear more than once in the same session. A candidate who appears, or attempts to appear, in the examination using more than one Application Number will be treated as having used Unfair Means (UFM), and action will be taken as per the Information Bulletin. Merely holding more than one Application Number, without appearing using them, will not be treated as UFM.
