1. My digital ID card is not generating. 

Complaint: My digital ID card is not generating.

Answer:

If your digital ID card is not generating in the IGNOU portal, it usually means there is an issue with re-registration, enrollment verification, or portal sync.

📌 Reasons Digital ID May Not Generate

  1. Re-Registration Not Updated – If your current session is not active on the portal, ID generation is blocked.
  2. Enrollment / Document Verification Pending – Your admission documents may not be verified by RC/IGNOU HQ.
  3. Portal / Browser Issue – Sometimes the portal doesn’t generate ID due to browser cache, pop-up blockers, or outdated portal version.
  4. Incomplete Profile – Missing personal details like photograph, signature, or contact information can prevent generation.

📌 Steps to Resolve

  1. Verify Profile Completion
    • Login to IGNOU Student Portal → “Update Profile” → Ensure all details including photo and signature are uploaded.
  2. Check Re-Registration / Admission Status
    • Digital ID only generates if current session is active.
  3. Try a Different Browser / Clear Cache
    • Use Chrome / Edge and enable pop-ups.
  4. Download from Correct Portal
    • Digital ID Card Portal: https://ignou.digitalid.in/
  5. Contact Regional Centre (RC)
    • Provide Name, Enrollment Number, Programme, and Session.
    • Request verification of profile and ID generation issue.
  6. Email IGNOU HQ if issue persists
    • support@ignou.ac.in or admission@ignou.ac.in
    • Include screenshot of error / portal page.

📌 Important Notes

  • Digital ID can only be generated for active enrolled students with verified documents.
  • After re-registration or admission update, it may take 1–3 working days to generate ID.
  • Always keep a soft copy of your admission / re-registration proof ready for verification.

👉 Tip: Ensure your photograph and signature meet IGNOU guidelines (JPEG/PNG, correct size) before generating digital ID.
