Hello everyone
I am trying to apply for a fresh OCI Application for minor,1 year old born in US.
What has been done so far
1 - Registered on Govt site [ociservices.gov.in] and completed PartA and PartB. Uploaded photo, signature and some scanned documents, few are pending and i will complete them as well.
2 - Used the reference number and created a application on CKGS for fresh oci.
3 - Next steps are for me to send physical documents to CKGS [i will complete uploading all req documents on Govt site before i do this]
Things to be notarized
1 - OCI Application Form with minor parents signatures
2 - Parental Authorization Form
Things that are unclear to me and need help on
1 - Affidavit in Lieu of Originals
>> This pdf is nowhere to be found on CKGS or Indian Embassy website. CKGS says if this is applicable then download and hand fill from indian embassy website.
2 - Additional Particulars Form
>> This pdf is also not available on CKGS although i managed to get this from this website for SF using this link
https://www.immihelp.com/nri/oversea...documents.html
3 - Do we need to send Original US Passport of the minor to CKGS
>> CKGS checklist says "DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL PASSPORT IF APPLYING FOR OCI MISC. AND OCI IN LIEU OF PIO CARD"
>> Mine is a fresh application so i should send ?
>> And then there is this below link which says we should not send original Passport initially which has confused me further

Here is a screenshot from CKGS > My Account final page has this text
Above Indian Embassy link gets me a blank empty white page without any documents to download...

- Due to changes in the OCI application process, prepopulated forms will no longer be available on the CKGS website. If any of the below forms are applicable to you (check your Document Checklist), download the forms from https://www.indianembassyusa.gov.in/pages?id=3&subid=14, hand fill and submit along them with your application.
1. Parental Authorization Form
2. Additional Particulars Form
3. Affidavit in Lieu of Originals
4. Sworn Affidavit (Applying on basis of Spouse)
