Hi guys,

Does affidavit work? My sister has been writing our parents name as Rakesh Kumar and Shashi Bala and I have been writing just the first name, i.e. Shashi and Rakesh.
Do you think, getting an affidavit would work in this case?

Do you both have birth certificates? What are the names in either of your certificates?

we have birth certificates but mine doesn’t include my name on it. Although, parents names are same there.
Then that will be sufficient. It will be a good idea to get your certificate updated with your name though. The issuing authority should be easily able to do that.

Yes, sure. I have submitted my application and have enclosed our passports with an affidavit stating that our parents are same. Fingers crossed now! Also, I will apply for birth certificate and if asked, I will have it ready with me.
Thanks for all your help!

If you get an updated birth certificate with your name on it, send it immediately using case specific inquiry and explanation. Don't wait for them to ask for it.

Do you attached documents with this affidavit to give to the lawyer who provided u this affidavit? And also for PR?
