Hello Sajid,

To complete the NEET PG 2025 application as a Person with Disability (PwD) candidate, do the following:

  1. Go to the official NEET PG website.
  2. Register using your email ID and mobile number.
  3. In the application form, in the category column, choose PwD.
  4. Upload a valid PwD disability certificate from a recognized medical authority (according to the latest NMC guidelines).
  5. Select your PwD sub-category if necessary (e.g., locomotor, hearing, etc.).
  6. Continue with uploading your photo, signature, and documents.
  7. Pay application fee (PwD candidates usually have a lower fee).
  8. Submit and download the confirmation page.

Ensure that your certificate is in the desired format and within the permissible period. Keep looking at the NBE website for format and eligibility updates.

Hello Aspirant,

If you entered S B ARUN KUMAR rather than ARUN KUMAR S B in the NEET PG 2025 application, it should not be too much of a problem, particularly if your initials and full name are the same as on your documents. However, you should ensure your identity can be determined without confusion during document verification.
You would need to contact NBE (National Board of Examinations) via their official helpdesk or email to explain the situation and ask if you can correct your application or maybe put their mind at ease. If that is not an option then be sure to take a government ID and all your original documents that show your full name in the order that can be understood during the counselling or verification process. It is always best to obtain a written confirmation from NBE to avoid any issues later.

Yes, you can likely apply to NEET PG with your provisional registration certificate, especially if you've completed your internship by the specified deadline. However, you'll need to ensure you meet all other eligibility criteria as well.

However try to get the permanent registration as soon as possible.

If your NEET PG 2025 payment was debited successfully but shows as "payment failure" in the form, follow these steps:

Steps to Follow:

  • Check Bank Statement : Verify if the payment was actually deducted from your account.

  • Wait for 24-48 Hours : Sometimes, the payment status may update after a delay.

  • Check NEET PG Portal : Log in again and see if there’s any update on your payment status.

  • Contact NEET PG Helpdesk : If the payment status doesn’t update, reach out to the official NEET PG helpdesk for assistance.

  • Provide Payment Proof : Keep your bank statement or transaction details ready when contacting support.

Ensure all details are correct and follow up promptly with the authorities.

In NEET PG 2025, uploading your MBBS degree certificate instead of the medical council registration certificate is likely to cause issues, as the registration certificate is a mandatory document. The National Board of Examinations (NBE) may ask you to rectify the issue by opening a correction window, but if not, you may need to contact the NBE for assistance.

Elaboration:

Mandatory Documents:

The NEET PG application process requires specific documents, including the medical council registration certificate for MBBS qualification, as mentioned on the NEET PG application form, as well as the MBBS degree certificate.

Potential for Disqualification:

Uploading the wrong document may lead to your application being rejected or delayed due to verification problems during the counselling process.

Correction Window (If Available):

The NBE may provide a correction window to rectify errors in the application form. You should check for such a window and use it to upload the correct medical council registration certificate if it is available.

Contacting the NBE (If No Correction Window):

If a correction window is not provided or you miss the opportunity, you should contact the NBE through the official channels (phone number, email, or online form) to inquire about the possibility of making the correction. Explain the situation and ask for guidance on how to upload the correct document

Verification during Counselling:

During the NEET PG counselling process, your documents, including the medical council registration certificate, will be verified to ensure your eligibility for the program. Any discrepancies may lead to disqualification.
