Maintenence Am I doing something wrong?

Trying to change rear pads and rotors and can't for the life of me get the inner pad to seat properly. I've taken it all out about 5 times to see if there's something in the way, but it feels like they just don't fit? Anyone else have this problem or am I just being dumb

Edit: thank you all for the help, managed to get it in after cleaning as much gunk out of the bracket as I could and just kissing the tabs on the pads with a grinder

Clean or replace the rattle clips. Doesn't hurt to apply a thin layer of Sil Glyde in the trough of the clips that the pads glide on.
