Hi helpful memebers,
What is the process of re-acquiring Indian citizenship, after holding OCI Card for 3 years.
Situation: Acquired British Citizenship & OCI 3 years ago & before that mother(applicant) was holding valid Indian passport.
Mother living in India for last 1 year. Minor child born in India during summer year.
Question 1: Will it be possible to gain Indian citizenshio straight away now, after holding OCI for 3 years?
Question 2: Will mother be able to pass the Indian citizenship to the child, after acquiring Indian citizenship now?
Or Indian passport application for the child be rejected as mother /father weren't holding Indian citizenship at the time of child's birth?
Question 3: If mother acquired Indian citizenship, what is the grace period for using the British passport for travel ?
Question 4: What are the rules from Indian authrities to surrender British passport ? (Do they provide any grace period)
Question 5: Does mother need to have Indian passport if we've to apply for Indian passport for the minor child? or mother's Indian registration/naturalisation certificate be suffice?
Question 6: Will mother be able to apply for OCI card again, if she regains the British citizenship in short period of time / do not renounce the BC altogether?
Kindly advise
Cheers,
