Re: ► What Documents do i need to make Indian Passport?

What a good day to bump this thread! I too wanted to update on my passport issue. :p

Since I got to know that Annexure F was compulsory for tatkaal method on my last visit to PSK after taking appointment (about a month ago), I decided to apply for the passport through normal (non-tatkaal) method. But for straight one month I wasn't able to get an appointment again due to the strict policy of passport website to book it at sharp 6 PM. Within just 2-3 min appointment slots were used to get fill.

Anyway, I was able to book an appointment for tomorrow (Wed, 27th June). Let's see if I am able to get through with all the documents that were made ready the previous time! :Fingerx:

If you are sure you can arrange the birth certificate within the stipulated time, just go ahead with booking the appointment.
You are not bound to goto PSK on the day of appointment, as long as you cancel the appointment so that that slot can be free for other candidates.

So, if you are unable to arrange the birth certificate just cancel it 1 or 2 days prior, and try taking appointment next time.

Update:

On 27th June I went to the PSK and went through the process. I was passed through 3 counters and finally was given a receipt. Then after few weeks police verification was also done. And then I got my passport just about a week ago from today through speed post.

So all in all, it was a thorough process and a long wait. But finally I got my passport!! :D

Now.. only if I get a chance to mark a stamp on it .... :p

I have a query.

Do we have to make a new passport if address is changed?
I mean only the Room No is changed but pin-code & street is same

Yes, you need to go through the process again, but there will be one more document. you need to give address proof for 1 year for the previous residence also.

Okay, bumping this.

I'm applying too. Someone please tell me what these "references" in native town or village are? Can I give my parents' names? Or uncles, aunts, grandparents? Or is it non-family?

no family/relatives.. give name and address of two of your neighbors.

when the police come for verification they may check with them (only if you are staying in your current address for less than 1-2 yrs)

^Thanks.

Everytime I upload my form, it gives me an error now: "Your present address does not lie within the jurisdiction of Passport Office selected by you at Registration."

I don't remember selecting any passport office during registration, so what is this error about?

Called up customer care, they told me to change district, didn't help. Getting same error. Is this the only way to apply now?

The new account worked. Apparently there is an option for passport office during registration. If you select a different city, your application wont be accepted.
