Hi getamit2006 - I have the same question on both these documents. What did you end up doing?

If your minor can sign, have them do it wherever it asks for.
if not, parent can sign on behalf.

For affidavit in lieu of original, make sure to list all the documents you are sending a photocopy and have it signed and name printed by the notary.
(you just have to mention name of the minor applicant in two places in that form)

Do I need to list all of the xerox

Yes, either type it in word or simply write in with hand. Every xerox you made & self-attested, need to be listed here.

DOes thumb impression of minor required

I applied for an adult, but I would think keep it same as you did uploaded the signature part on OCI website. Did you upload an impression of thumb print of kid? Keep it consistent throughout the application.

If both parents can sign, should sign.
