+| Family | One family member only — based on Aadhaar + ration card link. |
+| Indian resident | Yes. NRIs disqualified. |
+| Citizen tax-payer last AY | **Disqualified** (paid Income Tax in last AY). |
+| Government employee | **Disqualified** (any current/retired Group A/B central/state). |
+| Doctor / Lawyer / CA / Architect | **Disqualified** (registered professionals earning regular income). |
+| MP / MLA / MLC / Mayor / Zilla Panchayat Chair | **Disqualified**. |
+| Pension > ₹10,000/month | **Disqualified**. |
+===== Documents required =====
+  - **Aadhaar card** (mobile-linked, mandatory)
+  - **Land documents** — RoR (Record of Rights), patta, khasra, pahani, or RTC. Must be in your name (or wife's, if she's the eligible farmer).
+  - **Bank passbook** (Aadhaar-seeded, IFSC visible)
+  - **Mobile number** for OTP
+===== Step-by-step application =====
+==== Online (recommended) ====
+  - Visit **https://pmkisan.gov.in** → "Farmers Corner" → "**New Farmer Registration**".
+  - Pick: **Rural Farmer** OR **Urban Farmer**.
+  - Aadhaar number → OTP verification.
+  - State / district / sub-district / village.
+  - **Land details** — survey number, area, type (irrigated / rain-fed).
+  - **Bank details** — account number + IFSC.
+  - **Self-declaration** — confirm none of the disqualifying conditions apply.
+  - Submit. **You get a registration ID** (save it).
+==== Offline ====
+  - Visit your **Common Service Centre (CSC)** with all documents above.
+  - Operator fills the form — fee ₹15–30.
+  - Sign + thumbprint.
+  - Get receipt.
+==== Verification ====
+  * Land record verification by Revenue Department (Patwari/Tehsildar).
+  * Approval at District Agriculture Office.
+  * **Approval typically 30–60 days** post-submission.
+  * **First instalment** within 30 days of approval (or next scheduled disbursement window).
+===== How to check status =====
+  - Visit https://pmkisan.gov.in → "Beneficiary Status".
+  - Enter Aadhaar / Account / Mobile.
+  - Status shown: Registered → Verified → Active → Last 4 instalments with dates + amounts.
+==== Beneficiary list ====
+  - "Farmers Corner" → "Beneficiary List".
+  - Drill: State → District → Sub-district → Village → name list.
+===== Common mistakes =====
+  * **Land not in your name** — joint family land needs **mutation in your name** at Tehsildar.
+  * **Hiding income tax payment** — DBT freezes when verification crosschecks ITD.
+  * **Multiple registrations in family** — flagged + cancelled. Only one family member is eligible.
+  * **Aadhaar-bank not seeded** — instalment shows "released" but doesn't credit. Branch visit fixes.
+  * **eKYC pending** — recurring re-eKYC required (typically every 5 years).
+  * **Land sold but not de-registered** — fraud. Penalty + recovery.
+===== Latest updates (2026) =====
+  * **eKYC mandatory** — completed for all active beneficiaries by Q1 2026.
+  * **Land records integration** — Bhulekh / Bhumi portals integrated; auto-verification reducing wait.
+  * **Female farmer enrolment drive** — 2025–26 push to register woman landholders separately.
+===== FAQ =====
+==== Why didn't I get the latest instalment? ====
+**5 most common reasons**: (1) eKYC pending, (2) land verification stuck at Revenue Dept, (3) Aadhaar-bank not seeded, (4) name/DOB mismatch between Aadhaar and bank, (5) recent disqualification flag (ITR / govt job filed). Check status at pmkisan.gov.in → Beneficiary Status.
+==== I'm a tenant farmer. Can I get PM-KISAN? ====
+**Generally no** — PM-KISAN goes to the **landholding farmer**. Some states (Andhra Pradesh, Odisha) recognise tenants via formal **Lease Cultivation Certificate**.
+==== I sold my land. Will my PM-KISAN continue? ====
+**No** — once you're not the landholding farmer, you're disqualified. Failure to disclose = recovery + penalty.
+==== Can I appeal disqualification? ====
+**Yes** — file **First Appeal under §19(1) RTI** to District Agriculture Officer within 30 days of rejection. Or file fresh registration after fixing the qualifying issue.
+==== Can a woman farmer apply if husband is also a farmer? ====
+**Only one family member is eligible.** Pick whichever is more secure (longer landholding, mobile-linked Aadhaar). Most cases, woman as primary is preferred (post-2025 govt push).
+==== What if my eKYC fails? ====
+Update Aadhaar mobile at UIDAI Seva Kendra + biometric re-verification. Visit nearest CSC for assisted eKYC.
