Hi andy2007,

I had done a similar mistake of filling that entire section. When I went to VFS they cancelled the whole page saying it is not needed. Hence, that section should not be filled.

Hope this helps.

I was trying to explain to the lady that the driving license was my proof of age for initial HSMP application, but still she refused and said its not needed and if you want, you can submit a photocopy of the driving license, but n...

Hi marupa, I have just applied for EC on 12th Nov in Mumbai. I think you have pretty everything covered up. If you can give a covering letter, that will an added benefit. From which city will you be applying ? Also, make sure that you are carrying photocopies of all your current and past employment ...

Hi Dev, Glad you mentioned these 2 important points. Everybody kindly read these points mentioned below as they had significant impact atleast with me. 1. There is no mention of of posted-dated EC in the new VAF2 Form, hence I had given a covering letter for post-dated EC and had stated the reasons ...

Hi JD,

I guess it is mandatory to submit ITR when applying for HSMP approval. Hence all the documents are needed to apply for EC, that you had submitted when applying initially for HSMP. Rest I think your list of docs is fine. Jut my 2 cents for the ITR though.

Hi jd, I have applied for EC with more-or-less with similar douments. But I think you also need to attach last 2 yrs Income Tax Returns, Covering Letter. Also, specific to my case, I have shown Credit Cards worth Rs.3,30,000, bank balance of around Rs.7,00,000, National Savings Certificates worth Rs...

Hi All. I am in the process of applying for EC very soon. My problem is that 2 of my previous employers that I had worked for have been closed down(the companies have been closed).

hi prem12,

Even my employer had given me the exact letter, saying that this letter was given to him for applying loan, and it was accepted by HO and I just got my HSMP approved. Hope this helps.
