Sir/Madam, during my initial SSQ verification, I mentioned that my mother is a housewife, which is her primary role. However, in a subsequent verification, I clarified that she also works part-time data entry, earning around ₹10,000 per month. The verification officers informed me this would not be an issue. However, I am still concerned whether this discrepancy could cause any complications in my employment. Since parental occupation is generally not a deciding factor, I wanted to confirm if such a minor difference in the information provided could have any serious consequences. Could this be considered suppression of information, or is it a non-issue in such cases?

In most cases, a minor discrepancy like this—especially when the additional information was voluntarily clarified—should not be a serious issue. Employers and verification officers typically focus on material facts that impact your eligibility for employment, such as your qualifications, work history, and background checks.Since your mother’s occupation is not a direct factor in your employment decision and you did not intentionally misrepresent any critical information, this would likely be considered a non-issue.
The fact that you clarified it in a subsequent verification further supports that there was no intent to suppress information.However, if you are still concerned, you could proactively communicate with the HR or verification team, stating that your initial response was based on her primary occupation but that you later provided additional details for accuracy. This demonstrates transparency and ensures peace of mind.
