Hi

I have seen your question regarding birth certificate. My scene is same like you. I also have Non-Availability certificates. Did you get answer for this question? Because even I didn't get any answer on forums. It will be great if you can help me out here. Did you use Non-Availability certificate as your BC? I have prepared these for my GC in 2001. Do they accept them?

I will be greatful if you can explain/help me a little here.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

I think Only Mumbai Consulate requires Birth Certificate.U might want to verify that.The site says, people applying inMumbai, only require Birth Certificates.

To the best of my knowledge, only Mumbai asks for original birth certificate.
