Hello - My daughter uploaded only the thumb prints instead of all 10 fingers in her NEET 2026 application. It appears this cannot be corrected during the correction window. Will her application be rejected and is it possible to reach out to NTA for help? Please advise.

Hello...
Uploading only the thumb impressions instead of all 10 fingerprints in the NEET 2026 application may create an issue because the National Testing Agency (NTA) usually requires the exact format specified in the instructions. However, applications are not always rejected immediately for such mistakes. In many cases, NTA allows candidates to correct biometric details during later verification stages or may issue instructions separately. Your daughter should regularly check the official NEET/NTA website and her email for updates. It is also advisable to contact NTA Help Desk through their official email or helpline to explain the issue and request guidance as soon as possible. Plz contact information Here-

Hi,

If your daughter uploaded only thumb impressions instead of all 10 fingerprints in the NEET 2026 application, it usually does not lead to automatic rejection immediately. The National Testing Agency (NTA) often allows candidates to correct biometric details later during document verification or at the exam centre if the application is otherwise valid.

However, since the correction window may not allow this change, it is best to contact NTA support immediately. You can:

  • Email: neet@nta.ac.in (mailto:neet@nta.ac.in) neetus2026@nta.ac.in.

  • Call the NTA helpline: 011-40759000 / 011-69227700

  • Use the “Contact Us” section on the official NEET website.

Explain the mistake and request guidance. Keep the correct fingerprint scan ready in case they ask for resubmission.
