Hi,
2 further questions on the same topic:
Question 1:
Documents required for fresh OCU applicants (on the basis of own Indian origin) states:
Link:
https://www.vfsglobal.com/india/uk/OCI.html
Fresh OCI (on the basis of applicant’s own Indian Origin)
Current Passport copy
Indian Origin Proof
Please upload the proof of Indian Origin as per the Documents Required, i.e.
Surrender Certificate,
Previous Indian Passport Copy,
Birth Certificate or School Leaving Certificate from India,
Nativity or Domicile Certificate.
Are the docs highlighted in yellow really necessary? Birth Certificate or School Leaving Certificate from India and Nativity or Domicile Certificate?
Question 2:
When I upload Indian Origin Proof and upload cancelled Indian passport, it doesn't allow me to upload the 2nd document such as Indian Surrender Certificate under the same category.
Although, this is what is recommended in the Docs required site as quoted below:
In absence of an available option in the drop down list for the exact document you are uploading, please upload the necessary document in the nearest suitable category. For example, applicants applying for OCI Miscellaneous services may upload their OCI Card copy under the section “Indian Visa”; Surrender Certificate of self may be uploaded under the section “Indian Origin Proof” with the sub category “Nativity Certificate of Self”.
Any insight on how to work around this would be greatly appreciated.
