The notice also further informed that the applicants can make enquiries about the status of the Eligibility application at the NMC official email; however, while making such enquiries, all the candidates are requested to invariably provide their File Tracking Number, which was generated while submitting the application to NMC for issuance of the Eligibility Certificate. It may please be noted that no response will be sent to the candidate in the absence of a File Tracking Number. An advisory is also attached for the guidance of the applicants. Accordingly, all candidates are requested to submit an application after conducting due diligence and checking the requisite entries scrupulously before submitting the application. The candidates who have already submitted an application for issuance of the Eligibility Certificate to NMC in the past need not apply again. Meanwhile, it has also been observed on previous occasions that various mistakes are made by the candidates while applying for the EC. The following are suggested measures to avoid mistakes- 1 The applications should preferably be filled out by the candidate themselves and should ideally avoid a proxy for making applications for EC. 2 The candidates are also advised to keep their documents handy before filling application for EC; it would be ideal if the entries to be made are verified vis-à-vis entries in the original documents. 3 The candidates should provide their active mobile numbers so that alerts/deficiencies can reach them directly for rectification to obviate any delay in rectification. It may also be ensured that once the deficiency is conveyed, only the deficiency should be rectified by the respective candidate as expeditiously as possible to avoid last last-minute rush. 4 Candidates shall scrupulously check entries and ensure conformity with the details in the original documents to ensure quick processing/approval of applications if otherwise eligible.
