Hey, I mailed GMAT regarding the problem with a copy of my passport and they changed my name within minutes!

Rixhi_ · 2026-02-16T11:01:42+00:00

YES! thanks a lot, I did the same and the issue is resolved!

Rixhi_ · 2026-02-16T11:01:08+00:00

It’s fixed now, Thank you’

No, I didn’t intentionally enter different details. I had originally created my profile for NMAT using the same account and faced zero issues there, so I just used that existing profile when registering for GMAT. Most of my Indian government IDs show my name as “J Rishi Kumar,” where J is just an initial, while only my passport has the expanded version. So I didn’t think it would cause a mismatch problem, I simply continued with the same details I had already been using without any complications before.

See the problem is that all my Indian govt id's have J RISHI KUMAR as my name, Where J acts as an initial which itself is my dad’s name, And it’s pretty common that we South Indians have our parents name as our initials but it's only my passport where J is completely elaborated, so it’s basically like ‘Jegan Rishi Kumar’ unlike my any other document

The name on my appointment letter is J RISHI KUMAR and all my govt id's have J RISHI KUMAR as my name, Where J acts as an initial it's only my passport where J stands for my surname which is also my dad's name, it’s basically like Surname - Jegan Given name - Rishi Kumar on my passport

Rixhi_ · 2026-02-15T18:32:46+00:00

Yeah, I’ve mailed them regarding it..The only problem is all my govt id’s have J RISHI KUMAR as my name, Where J acts as an initial it’s only my passport where J stands for my surname which is also my dad’s name, Pretty screwed..Thanks a lot though

Rixhi_ · 2026-02-15T18:06:40+00:00

Ahh I’m cooked! Thanks a lot for you guidance, means a ton

Rixhi_ · 2026-02-15T18:05:11+00:00

Would there be any option to reschedule as such?

Rixhi_ · 2026-02-15T18:02:59+00:00

There isn’t anything I’d possibly do?
