Rejected or still waiting? Check these first
Most applications fail for a correctable reason, not because the applicant was ineligible. Before assuming you do not qualify, check each of these:
- Family income is above the below-poverty-line limit
- Bride's age proof does not establish legal marriageable age
- Application was submitted outside the window allowed around the marriage date
- Bank account details did not match the Aadhaar record, so the transfer failed
