@Neyawn Man, I screwed up a bit.

While filling up the question
"18(b).Details of Examination in which you have appeared including CS(P), 2020"
I wrote 2022 instead of 2020 (pic below)


I don't understand how I did not catch this error while proof-reading. 

Please suggest what to do next.

Do what people do every year. Write an email to UPSC informing them. Quote all relevant details.


Also do what Neanderthals like us used to do. Write a letter to UPSC. Keep a photocopy. Then send it speed post and keep receipt of speed post slip. Make sure that you take a photocopy of that also as ink gets erased with time as they use dot matrix printer mostly.

@Neyawn 

Sir, in the question mentioning attempts, I have mentioned 3 correctly, alongwith the corresponding roll nos.

However, in the immediately next question, Q. Whether have you ever applied for UPSC examination/recruitment? 

I marked- NO, (assuming upsc is asking other exams, since csp attempts are already mentioned in previous question)

Some friends are now mentioning even the details of previous cse attempts in this question.

What should be done sir?  Already submitted DAF-1.

Bro, then ask the EWS certificate person to make it with surname.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is “Recognition letter” mentioned in the documents to be uploaded? Or just the Graduation certificate should do? Also do we need to self attest the documents or something?

My college campus shifted to a new location since I graduated, but my provisional degree contains old address. What should I write in the “ address of issuing authority “

A small doubt.

I can't seem to find the 'Certificate No' in my college degree. Somebody please help.

@TwoFace i dont think its a mistake. That is what its supposed to be since CSE attempts have been asked in a different column. This column means any other recruitment. It makes no sense as to why they would ask the same question twice.

@Steph_Curry it is the serial number mentioned on the top right corner or sometimes on the back of your makrsheet.

@TheMiddlePath one of my friend who is in CAPF only mentioned CAPF in that column and not his upsc attempts since it has already been asked. He faced no issues during or after his interview

The undertaking should be all typed or they will accept the ones where all the blanks are written ??

Plus, is signature also mandatory ?

@Phoebebuffay Yeah it makes sence but if you tap the list of exams to be filled, it clearly mentions CSE(pre), Forest(pre) etc. So I am really confused what to fill. Talked to one of my friend, he filled cse details there.

Go ahead with it now. In case you have issues, this will be after the Interview. In the history of DAf deficiencies and mistakes, yours is a trivial one. Worry about it after the Interview. In case DoPT is not satisfied later, you may be treated as general candidate. All that can be put to litigation.


So worry not.

This used to be asked before induction for general candidates. For OBC Creamy layer , I think it is asked right now. I may be wrong.

Both ways work.

While there is no place for signature as I can see, do put a signature, for safety.
