What actually goes wrong
The address on every document must match
A mismatch between the Aadhaar address and the utility bill is the most common reason a PSK appointment ends in a re-visit. Reconcile them before you book the slot, not at the counter.
Originals go with you
The PSK verifies originals and keeps self-attested copies. Printing this pack gives you the copies; carry the originals in the same order.
