10 Common Marriage Biodata Mistakes That Get You Rejected

You sent your biodata to 10 families but got zero replies. Why? The problem might not be you—it might be your document.

Mistake #1: Using a Selfie or Group Photo

The Problem

Uploaded a blurry selfie, a photo with sunglasses, or a group picture where it's hard to tell who you are. This shows a lack of seriousness.

The Fix

Use a high-quality, solo, chest-level portrait with a plain background and a pleasant smile.

Mistake #2: Hiding Your Age or Height

The Problem

Leaving out basic stats or lying about them. Families value transparency above all else.

The Fix

Be honest. Transparency builds trust. If you are 5ft 4in, state it proudly.

Mistake #3: Spelling Errors & Bad Formatting

The Problem

A messy Word doc with misaligned text and typos suggests you are careless or unprofessional.

The Fix

Don't use Word. Use an automated PDF generator to ensure lines are straight and layout is perfect.

Mistake #4: Being Too Vague About Expectations

The Problem

Writing generic phrases like 'Looking for a good girl/boy'. This helps no one understand what you actually want.

The Fix

Define 'good'. Mention specifics: Education, Location, Religious Values, or Lifestyle preferences.

Mistake #5: Including Too Much Info (The 4-Page Resume)

The Problem

Writing a novel about your life history. Parents scan biodatas; they don't read them like books.

The Fix

Keep it to 1-2 pages maximum. Focus on the highlights.
