Need help in filing PIO card for my son who is a US citizen
My son was born in US and thus he holds US Citizenship where as both me and my wife are Indians. We came back to India and settled down in India. I want to apply for dual citizenship or PIO card for my son, can any one help me. How and where do I need to apply. I currently stay in Hyderabad. We came to India 2 years back and my son is 4 yrs old now.
Once I have applied for PIO card for they sent it back to me saying that i need to convert my sons visa status to 'X' type since he is in tourist visa status, can any one of you please let me know how do I need to convert my sons visa status. And also can any one of you please let me know is there any way that i can perosnally go and apply for PIO card.
Presently my son is staying in India on visting visa since 2 years and we havent registered any where. In the link which is given below
Question no 6.1:
"Question 1: Whether every foreigner is required to be
registered?
Answer: No. Foreigners visiting India on any short-term visa i.e. valid upto 180 days or less are not required to register. Children below 16 years of age visiting India on any type of visa of any duration are also not required to register. "
I havent registerd any where in India, I am really worried about my son's status, can any one of you please suggest me how to proceed or please let me know if there are any agencies who can help me on this.
Thanks in Advance
