Verification Help & Guidance

Hi everyone,

I am a government school student from India. I recently passed 10th grade and moved to 11th grade (Commerce stream).

My official School ID card shows "Class 10" and does not have an expiry date. However, I have my official "Class 11 Admission Receipt" dated April 2026, which proves my current enrollment.

Since my ID has my photo but the wrong grade, and my current 11th receipt has the correct date but no photo, should I take a single picture containing both documents side-by-side to get approved?

Please guide me on how to clear the automated verification. Thank you!

Yes, you can try taking a clear photo showing both documents side-by-side. Your school ID provides the photo identification, and the Class 11 admission receipt provides proof of your current enrollment. Make sure all details are clearly visible and that the names on both documents match.

If the automated verification does not accept them, you may need to contact GitHub Support and explain that your ID card has not yet been updated to reflect your current grade. They can advise you on any additional documents that may be required.

Hi @Sahaab-Ji ,
Taking a side-by-side picture is definitely the best immediate step. Here is how :

Try the Side-by-Side: Place your Class 10 ID and the Class 11 admission receipt right next to each other. Make sure the lighting is bright and that your name, photo, and the April 2026 date are crystal clear so the automated bot can read the text.

The Foolproof Backup Plan: GitHub's automated system can sometimes get easily confused by multiple documents. If it rejects your photo, don't panic. Just ask your school's office for a quick "Bonafide Certificate" or a simple letter on official school letterhead stating you are a current 11th-grade student for this academic year. GitHub accepts those easily!

The verification bots can be strict, but just keep trying. Good luck!

Lets try. Submit it and see what happen .
I learned that GitHub's automated system can sometimes be a bit picky about admit cards. Even though they prove you are registered for an exam, the bot is specifically looking for proof of active enrollment for the academic year
