@ suja Prakash , for passport renewal for minor ,do we need to notarize self sworn affidavit ? I don’t see in checklist document .
@ suja Prakash , for Minor passport renewal , do parents need to sign 4 th page and also last page of government application form along with minor application .?
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?
One copy is enough..
@suja Prakash, thanks for this help full post, in the minor checklist document we have signature, can parent sign over there for 5year old? thanks...
Nice video .. just one query which address will come in Annexure D .. US address or indian address
In government passport application [Signature/Left Hand Thumb Impression of Applicant
(If applicant is minor, either parent to sign] - we are submitting application for minor. Can you please confirm whom need to sign.
Hi suja, please help me? in process for application for renewal of minor i accidentally wrote old passport number of the other parent in family step one ? how to fix after payment is already done? is that is going to be a problem?
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?
MADAM, PLEASE CORRECT THE VIDEO: SIGN DEPENDENT AND BOTH PARENTS FOR ANNEXTURE E.
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?
In the checklist it is given as application has 4 pages. But when I take the print it comes to 5 pages. Would that be an issue?
Hi suja
In the govt application portal do we need to give Indian address “printable“and USA address “others”? Or both should be Indian same address?
Hi can I take print and fill the documents with hand or even information must be typed? Example affidavit for change of information
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
On Annexure D, what will be city and state? India or USA
Hi Suja I have a question that my 7yr old child is in India right now and she’s a green card holder but my parents are applying for her passport renewal in India. So they need a consent letter to be signed by us. Does this a normal consent letter and need only notarized by someone? Plz do reply
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 ?
Do both parents need to sign Minor’s passport copies first five pages and last two pages and birth certificate copy.
Hi, how long is the ARN number generated valid for? Does ARN number expire? I have filled application on Goverment site on 3rd december and today is 19th december, I am planning to send documents now, will the ARN number still be valid or do I need to fill Government form again?
Hi, Can I get notary from two places like few from bank and few from UPS?
Do u know the processing time for new oci in new york?
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?
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.....
Yes, correct
Hi Suja, so I am renewing my son Minor indian passport here in USA and it had an Indian address which is old, now my parents are at a different address and I mentioned that address but I dont have anything on my name for proof of address. My name and my wife's name is already on my son's passport that I am renewing which will expire this June 2024. can you advice please
Hi Suja! Thank you for the video! Which address should be mentioned in Annexure D? US or India address?
Please refer below video on this
ruclips.net/video/7x_FNWMaiVA/видео.html
Hi Suja, This video is helpfull I have a query can I submit kids grandfather address proof to be appear on the indian passport?
Thanks for sharing the video. I had a query. While generating to and fro vfs shipping labels for fedex ,should we give parent name or minor child name along with the address?.
You can provide parents name
Thank you for the video. Re-ISSUE of passport, going to expire soon. I have a query, I registered my marriage in US and have a marriage certificate. Do I have to send a notarized marriage certificate along with the application package? Also, after filling out the application online how many days do I have to send the package?
Thank you in advance.
Hi Suja , Annexure D and E which address should mention ?
in the VFS site, when addiing a new customer, should i mention the name under "First name" itself or break the given name into first name and middle name. for eg, ram raj mohan , mohan is the last name, " ram raj "should be mentioned in first name field (or) " ram " in the first name and "raj" in the middle name ?
Mention as it is in your Indian passport.. given name = first name , surname = last name
Thank you Suja, You made my day. Really Really thanks for this video. I do have one question, I got only one shipping label. Not sure where to go and download return label. Please help me. Thanks
Thank you.. refer below video on courier label update

Hi Suja, for minors, can we apply for passport renewal, when current minor passport is still valid for 1.5 yrs?
which address to mention on annexure D & E? US address or Indian address?
ALL, PLEASE SIGN DEPENDENT AND BOTH PARENTS FOR ANNEXTURE E OTHERWISE YOU HAVE TO SEND BACK ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS.
I HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE.
IN THIS VIDEO IT WAS MIS LEADING INFO THAT EITHER PARENT HAS TO SIGN.. NO NO THAT WAS WRONG
Hi Suja
I am in USA and want to renew Indian passport for my daughter(minor) . My current passport has Indian address printed on back and I want same address on renewed passport also. What address should i fill in Annexure E and "Change In apperance form" ? Indian address or current USA address where we are staying ? Kindly clarify
We applied to renew their passports from the Indian Embassy through VFS with our US address. During application, they asked us for one Indian address outside the US, so we provided my parents' address in India. Now that my parents are here in the US, we received an email from the Indian Embassy informing us that they issued a Police Verification Request to Indian Police near their home in India.
Is this the normal procedure?
Will the police check our parents' house to see if our kids reside there? That is not the case because they reside here, which is why we are renewing passports here...
Thanks in Advance!
Hello Suja, As my child 6 yrs old, I don't have any address proof with her name. Shall I provide the address proof of both parents in that case?
Please help on this.
Any places from where can I get a notary done.
Approached bank of America. They said they can't do identification or copies but only signature
You can get it in ups store .. they charge 5-10 $ for one document .

Hi Mam. I have minor daughter. I m divorced and I have daughters custody.can you help me how to renew her passport and which documents I have to provide please help me for
Thank you for the video! Did anyone apply for re-issuance through tatkal? How many days, can we get the passport for minors thro tatkal?
On clicking download courier label we get 2 labels (1 for sending to them and other label is for them to send to us). Do we need to keep the other label to send to us printed and placed inside the package or we need not send that at all? I was confused on why they are providing return labels to us
Yes print the return label and place along with the documents
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.
US ADDRESS
@@SujaPrakash THANK U SO MUCH
Hi , I have submitted the application to VFS. I got reply saying my Applicants name is not matching existing passport. I realize that I missed middle name. How to go ahead with this? I can not update existing application and if I create new application then ARN number will be mismatch between old and new application.
You have to create new application and sent it to vfs . Don’t worthy about arn number, they will handle it .
What is digital photo service vfs charging $7.99 for ?
My father and I came to USA in 2018. He dropped me off and went back to India. He holds a valid green card but since my mother did not ever came to US, she does not have a green card. I applied as a minor and VFS required copies of parent green card but what will I submit if my mother does not have a green card at all? Thanks.
You can say they are not in USA .. they are asking green card as a legal status of parents in USA . Since your parents are not in US you can mention the same
If the Minor is 16 years at renewal,what is the validity required, is it 10 years or until 18 years
Mam we have to fill forms hand writing or print
Hi Suja ,thanks for this video,its very helpful.
one doubt,annexture D i am not able to fill online,so can I just download and fill it manually?
the checklist also says that had written forms not accepted.not sure what to do.
You can fill it manually, I myself did like that and didn’t have any issues
@@SujaPrakash thanks
Thank you for the process, it has really helped me. I do have one question, what date format is should use on all the forms mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy ?
Dd/mm/yyyy
@@SujaPrakash Thank you :)
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.
Yes , original passport has to be submitted
Yes , original passport has to be submitted
@@SujaPrakash Thank you, Mam.
thank you so much Suja. you made my day, this video helped me when for my son's passport renewal. after reaching the embassy(SFO) for the normal process. do you know how many days the embassy to process and send a new passport? this is my son's second passport in USA (we got expiring passport from SFO)
It should take 4 weeks, since it’s second time renewal in USA it should a bit fast
@@SujaPrakash thank you so much for the reply
In the reason of reissue do we have to select change in existing particular as well since the kids signature would have changed?
Not mandatory for minor
@Suja Prakash, thank you for sharing this video. Can you please explain or let me know is it possible to fill the Annexure D,E & Affidavit for change in appearance and signature forms, because I am not getting an option to fill online I can only able to download not sure I can fill with hand and which color Pen I need to use also not getting sufficient space to fill manually with hand on the printed forms. Please advise me at the earliest, thank you in advance.
You can fill manually, use blue pen
@@SujaPrakash So now there is no option to fill them through online right, if so share the link, please confirm.
Sorry I don’t have link to fill online.. we did manually only
@@SujaPrakash Thank you for your quick response
Sample Forms : ruclips.net/video/7x_FNWMaiVA/видео.html
Do we need to send all the documents on the date mentioned on the fedex courier label by vfs?
Also how to notarize the documents?
Not mandatory.. you can reach local bank or ups for notarization
Hi Suja, My son's H4 extension is pending with USCIS and his passport is expiring in Dec 2021, which document should be used and considered for legal stay status in such case
You can use h4 receipt... refer below video on this update ruclips.net/video/7x_FNWMaiVA/видео.html
Hi Suja, Very informative video, Thank You! Would you confirm I need to send the original passport of the child along with the photocopies of the first five and last two pages. Thanks!
Yes , you will get original passport back with cancelled stamp on it
Do they do police verification in India?
In affidavit for change in appearance for minor below 5 yrs should parents sign below the thumb impression?
Hi,
I’m in the same boat. Because they are not notarizing for thumb impression. My daughter is also below 5. Do you find solution?
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
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
1) yes
2) has changed appearance/ has not changed appearance
Choose which ever is applicable
@@SujaPrakash means has his appearance changed from what time ??
From last passport photo
Hi Suja, thank you for your video. I had one question. I wish to change my signature in my renewal process, Along with the change in the signature form, Do I need to sign with new signature in my case?
Yes , sign with new signatures
ruclips.net/video/7x_FNWMaiVA/видео.html
Repeating the questions: 1. Checklist says Envelope should be superscribed as "RE-ISSUANCE OF PASSPORT", what does that mean ?
2. Checklist says: Both parents must sign on page 4 of the online application form below the minor's thumb impression" but there is no space for thumb impression on page 4, thumb impression is on page 1 and 5, so much confusing
3. At few places its written to provide color - copy, like visa/i797 etc. is that true ?
4. in self attest docs, do we need to sign and provide date or only sign is enough ?
5. Do we need to notarize each page of a document? like if passport has 3 pages, need to notarize all or its one page per doc ?
please respond when you get time, I am waiting on my application
1) on top of ur envelope write “re issuance of passport” with marker .
2)may be you have printed with bigger font . Take thumb impression on page 1 and 5 . And parents sign on page 5 below thumb impression
3)yes
4) just sign is fine
5)one page per doc
Hi , im applying for minor , can we fill the annex. D , self sworn affidavit , change of appearance form etc manually or should convert the pdf to word and fill it electronically ? , please advise

Is it necessary to notarize the Aadhar card copy for change of Indian address to be printed in the to be renewed passport? as we have changed the residence in India and use it when ever we visit.
Our address in USA will be anyway shall be notarized
Thanks
Not mandatory, you can self attest Indian address proof
Hi, address proof, Do we need to submit both the parents' address proof or one of the parents ?
As a best practice what should be in passport printable address?(Either US or Indian address). For people having proofs for both addresses.
It’s a personal choice .. there is no best practice in it I guess
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.

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
