ProofIncome proof (salary slip, employer certificate or self-declaration) plus identity proof

❓ Common questions
Why was my income certificate rejected?+
If the income you declared does not match your proof, or your name does not match your ID, verification fails.
How long is an income certificate valid?+
Income certificates are time limited and usually need renewal, so an old one may need re-applying rather than correcting.
Where do I re-apply?+
At your revenue authority (Tehsildar or SDM) or a state portal such as MeeSeva, Nadakacheri or eMitra, with proof that matches your declaration.
