Hi All
I am bit confused now and thought I will post my situation here for some advice before I apply for my OCI application.
In my Indian passport and in all official documents, I have Given names and but no surname.
Indian passport
Given Names : Rxxxx xxxx
Sur names : blank
In my British passport, they put given names as XXX
Given Names : XXX
Sur names : Rxxxx Kxxxx
Now I need to apply for my OCI – I am confused if I could mention in the OCI form (based on my British passport)
Given name as – XXX
Sur names : Rxxxx Kxxx
Has anybody faced the same situation? is it the normal thing for people with names like this in British passport and then applying for OCI with given name XXX or will Indian embassy create problem because I have put given names as xxx which does not look ok.
Please advice what’s the best solution for me right now
1) Apply for OCI with my British passport details (Given name – XXX and sur name – Rxxxx Kxxx)
2) Change my name in British passport to Given name – Rxxxx and Sur name - Kxxx (Include Name change deed, Surrender certificate and British passport, Proof of the new name used) and then apply for OCI with the new name
Please advise since i need to apply for OCI for my kids (One kid was Indian citizen but now is British and my other child is born British) and don't want this name in my British passport to create issues for them when they apply for OCI
