Dear Student, 

Once a candidate rectifies a mistake in document uploading for KEAM through the candidate portal, the update in the "Memo" section reflects within a few hours to up to 1-2 working days. This timeframe allows for re-upload, verification, and approval by the Kerala Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE).
