Pro Tips for TNEA Success
Common Rejection Mistakes to Avoid
Uploading Casual Social Media Photos
Using casual crop-outs from group photos or vacation snaps. These look unprofessional and will be rejected by verification officers.
Incorrect Signature Compression
Compressing the signature to under 20KB using bad tools often results in blurry, illegible lines, which slows down document verification.
Using Mobile Beautification Filters
Applying smoothing or color filters that alter your actual skin tone and features, making it hard to match your face during counseling.
