This is a very common concern, so don't worry—there is a solution!

The issue here is the discrepancy between the old photo on the Aadhaar card (the document used for identity proof) and your current appearance. Since you can't update the photo in the JEE form now, follow this core strategy:

1. Bring the Aadhaar Card: You must carry the original Aadhaar card (even with the old photo) that you registered with, as it has the correct details (name, date of birth) matching the form.

2. Carry a Second Valid ID: Crucially, bring another valid Government ID (like a Passport, Driving License, or PAN Card) that clearly shows your updated/current photo. This secondary proof confirms your identity to the invigilator.

3. Affidavit (Optional, but safe): If you are highly concerned, prepare a notarized affidavit declaring that the person in the old Aadhaar photo and your current photo is one and the same.

The invigilators primarily check if the candidate's personal details match and look for reasonable photo verification. Showing both the registered Aadhaar and a current photo ID usually resolves the issue.

Hello,

You can't change the photo on your submitted JEE Main form, but you can provide an updated photo ID at the exam center or contact the NTA for guidance. Since your Aadhar has your old photo, you should bring an old, different, valid photo, like a passport, a voter ID, etc. Here in this article you will find more about the JEE Main application.

I hope it will clear your query!!
