I haven't uploaded EWS certificate in my JEE application as it wasn't issued, as such I filled GEN category. Is it possible to upload the EWS certificate in 2nd correction window available in March 2021so that my GEN category can be changed to GEN-EWS. Also, I have applied for all 4 sessions.

Hello,
Yes, you can do change your category from General to ews during the correction window.But make sure if you change that you will need a valid ews certificate and if you won't be able to provide then you will still be considered a general candidate.
I hope this helps.

As I shall be uploading the EWS certificate in the second correction window, so just wanted to know will it be applicable for the first JEE Mains as well and shall I be considered as EWS certificate category holder for first session examination of JEE Mains 2021 also?
