this video and comments with answers helped on my hundred Qns :) :) Great and useful. VFS should be more clear i would say for all the possible mistakes
thank you for the details , its really helpful , one question i do have is : my kid is 5 years and 2 months old , does has to sign under photo copy or can we even take use his left hand thumb impression?
Thanks a lot for this helpful video. Valid visa has been mentioned in multiple (at least in three places) places in the checklist. Do I need to post only one physical notarised copy or need to give three copies?

Hello Suja! Thanks for the detailed video. One quick question.. While affixing the photo in the application form, do i need to get my child's thumb print in the box provided below the photo?? Please response ASAP.....
Hello Suja, Great video I have one Question. I am renewing my kid's passports and I wanted to change the address which ever printed in the old passport for that address poof is the parent's address proof is enough?
Thanks for the clear video, I have 1 question: For mandatory proof of address, should it be Indian address or US address. FYI there is no change to the passport address on the reissue application.
I have a question! Should i use Indian address or US address if my niece now lives in US. They came from India October 2023 and her passport expired in August 2024!
Hello Suja Mam, great video. Really helpful. Quick question - Do I need to send the original passport along with all the documents if I am applying in tatkal category for a minor? The documents checklist doesn't talk about original passport for tatkal applications.
Hi Suja, Thanks a lot for the video. The checklist says right under the section of Mandatory Forms that "Provide the documents below in original and photocopies on letter size paper" Does that mean we need to submit photocopies of all the documents like Online application form, Annexures etc?
Questions: 1. The checklist that we have to submit, do we need to tick mark against the checkboxes for the documents we are submitting ? 2. What does change of appearance form indicate? has/has not, couldn't understand
Hi Thanks for the video. I followed your steps but when I approached to Notary in UPS they said we cannot Notarize for minor under 18 for other country person. How to get notarized
My son just turned 5 years last week but he has NOT yet learned to do his signature. In such case, can we go ahead with his thumb impression in required places ?

Hey, I just have a question on the part where it says Indian adress proof [if applicant wants to add / change Indian adress] where the requirment stuff like adhar card / recent bank statement / deiver license has to minor's or it can be done using parent adhar card and other parent legal documents? Also, where it asks parent legal status documents requirment it asks both parents passport copies is it like same as the minor like first five pages and last 2 pages ? Or just first 2 and last 2 pages? And last question for other parents document can it has to be both parents or it can be done using one parent legal documents for example in fields like proof of adress in USA/ India ? Thank you so much.
Notary that I approached said person who are signing needs US ID and only then they can notarize. They are saying they cannot notarize application affidavits signed by kids as they do not have US iD. How did you all manage?
@@SujaPrakash Thanks. let me check with others. Another question. I already had 1 renewal. Should I send old passport copies which was cancelled as well?

Hi if one of the minor parent is away can we submit for renew without the signature of one of the parent? Or can we scan the self attestation and signature online?
And how long will it take the new passport to return?
Thanku for sharing the video.. i had a query... in annex E and affidavit for change of signature n appearance does only minor ( age 5 + ) signs or parents sign along with minor .... and if thr is no change in The indian address which is printed on passport then do we still need to provide Indian address proof .
Minor has to sign... if address didn’t change no need to provide address proof.
Thank you.

You can keep one extra photo, just in case
Hey, I just have a question on the part where it says Indian adress proof [if applicant wants to add / change Indian adress] where the requirment stuff like adhar card / recent bank statement / deiver license has to minor's or it can be done using parent adhar card and other parent legal documents? Also, where it asks parent legal status documents requirment it asks both parents passport copies is it like same as the minor like first five pages and last 2 pages ? Or just first 2 and last 2 pages? And last question for other parents document can it has to be both parents or it can be done using one parent legal documents for example in fields like proof of adress in USA/ India ? Thank you so much.
1) either of parents address can be given
2) parents passport information pages
3) one of the parents
@@SujaPrakash thank you
Thanks for your video, Will they accept the parents' driver's license as proof of address for the minor?
Yes , it’s accepted
The application form printed where there is space for 2x2 photo pasting appears to be smaller than actual photo size of 2x2. How did you guys manage?
It’s fine if your photo is little bit bigger.. no issues
@@SujaPrakash thank you
Notary that I approached said person who are signing needs US ID and only then they can notarize. They are saying they cannot notarize application affidavits signed by kids as they do not have US iD. How did you all manage?
Usually they ask for id.. we can show passport as an id.. but first time am hearing US Id .
@@SujaPrakash Thanks. let me check with others. Another question. I already had 1 renewal. Should I send old passport copies which was cancelled as well?
I guess it’s not needed
InAnnexure D we have to provide valid legal status of both parents and passport copies of both parents.but in checklist they also mention same thing .Do we need to provide 2 passport copies of both parents and 2 copies of legal status of both the parents .?
One copies of each document is fine
