Hi,
My niece is born in Pune and has studied here all her life. She is in 11th std now. Her parents are born in Kerala but the mother has lived here in Pune all her life and has even owned a flat in Pune for the past 16 years. But her Dad has been working at different places like Chennai,Bangalore,Panvel and Mumbai. Can she apply based on her Mother’s domicile?
Thankyou,
Bindu

We live in Pune since 1999 and work in Public Sector Bank, we do have Adhar Card and other Address Proof documents including property paid receipts. I would like to know whether Ration Card is compulsory to obtain Domicile Certificate?

Still we have been told that Ration Card is must and then finally we have obtained one now.
Is there any other document apart from Electricity Bills to be accepted as proof for continuously staying in the city, (like. letter from employer confirming the resident status / School certifying that student is their Bonafide student for the period from 1st to 10 th std)
we do have obtained permanent residence certificate from Talathi, but we have been told that it is not enough.
Moreover, parents Schooling Leaving Certificate is also being asked for which is again a cumbersome task as we have finished education from another city.
