Documents are easy.

Just visit HCI london website, and follow the links.

There is a full list of documents they require for either type of application for OCI. :wink:

I haven't found anything here that explain and helps me with my question. All I need to know is what documents I need to support mine and my sons OCI application that's it.

I'm look at the hci/Vfs websites and I'm still not 100 % sure exactly what documents I will need. So if anyone on here can just tell me what documents i will need , i will really appreciate it and be thankful to u all.

Thanks

As your query is not common situation there will be lesser applicants who had to take this route.

Hi , I've checked my eligbille to apply thoroughly either my wife or dad who both have Indian passports.

I'm having trouble finding out what documents I will need. I have emailed the hoi/Vfs for any information but still haven't heard anything from them.

Thanks

Hi , I would really appreciate an answer to my previous question from anyone who's has recently allocated for PCI card.

I don't think it's too much to ask for help to a question from people who have applied for OCI card and the documents required. I just need to reassured as the documents I going to submit are right.

Hi,

I recently applied for OCI for my son (British citizen). These are the documents I submitted.

OCI application
Original British passport
Birth certificate
nationality certificate
Address proof (should have your name & your wife name)
letter requesting OCI (from your wife as you are applying on the basis of her indian passport)
2 passport photos (different from UK size)

take photocopies of all the above said documents as well. all the photocopies should be self attested by you and your wife.
VFS will check and will give you the originals back.

i also submitted an affidavit from notary confirming that my son never had indian passport. i'm not sure whether you still need with VFS taking over these. (i still submitted as i was preparing to send to consulate but VFS took over from march beginning).

hope this helps.

Take all the documents to VFS along with photocopies (that is what I've done). They will ask/take whatever they want. They didn't take our marriage certificate.

Hi I am planning on applying for my OCI next week. I have recently received British citizenship. I was Indian citizen before. I have also just received my passport surrender certificate. While applying for my OCI do I also have to show my Birth Certificate? I have researched the VFS website but I am a bit confused and hence will appreciate if a senior member can just answer in yes or no.
