Can I change my name in OTR?

Identity corrections generally require documentary proof and may be limited to correction windows. Keep OTR matching your SSLC certificate, the reference document for TNPSC identity.

How to Update Your TNPSC OTR Profile, Photo & Signature

Your OTR profile follows you for five years, but photos age out and details change. Update it deliberately, between applications, not in a deadline panic.

Step 1
Log in and open profile edit
Updates happen inside your OTR dashboard. Some fields are freely editable; identity fields may require documentation or an open correction window.
Step 2
Refresh photo and signature when stale
The photo must remain recent (within 3 months at application). Prepare replacements at the exact spec before opening the edit screen.
Step 3
Keep education records current
Add newly completed qualifications with correct register numbers and medium of instruction, future PSTM claims depend on these entries.
Step 4
Never let profile and certificates diverge
Name spelling, community and dates must match your originals. If a certificate changes (say a corrected community card), update OTR to match immediately.
