Re: OCI Application

I am planning to submit my OCI application at HCI London on Tuesday (for 2 adults and 1 child). Can someone advise me if 2 copies of printed application form need to be submitted along with 2 copies of proofs? Also for a minor, do I have to submit his birth certificate or our marriage certificate?
