contents We propose two novel constraints for the theoretical corrections to Gamow-Teller transition rates. The first, derived from a two-level model, predicts forbidden regions within the plane defined by the isospin-mixing correction, $δ_{C1}$, and the ratio, $η$, of the isospin-symmetry Gamow-Teller matrix elements between the upper and lower admixed states. It serves as a filter for the theoretical calculations, particularly effective for small values of $|η|$. The other employs experimental $ft$ values, incorporating the upper admixed states, and exploits mirror symmetry to eliminate isospin-invariant and nuclear structure-independent quantities. This approach not only offers an alternative mean for collectively testing theoretical corrections but also, as a byproduct, enables the extraction of $η^2$. This provides another sensitive test for the isospin-conserving component of nuclear Hamiltonian. Our investigation reveals a substantial cancellation of among radiative correction contributions in these tests.
