According to the JEE Mains 2022 information brochure, the NTA has announced relaxation in criteria as a special case for JEE Advanced 2022.
The National Testing Agency (NTA) had announced to conduct Joint Entrance Examination Mains (JEE Mains 2022) in April and May. JEE Mains 2022 eligibility criteria and information brochure are also available on the official website at jeemain.nta.nic.in.

The JEE Advanced 2022 registration process will begin at jeeadv.ac.in on June 8 and conclude by June 14. The NTA has announced the relaxation in JEE Advanced 2022 eligibility criteria as a one-time measure due to the COVID-19 pandemic for those who passed the Class 12 or equivalent examination in 2020 and 2021 and successfully registered for JEE Advanced 2021 but did not appear.
These candidates must, however, register for the JEE Advanced 2022 in the online registration portal and pay the registration fee. Further, these candidates would be considered in addition to and not as part of the total number of candidates who would qualify from JEE Main 2022 for appearing in JEE Advanced 2022.
