The drop-down menu includes options that appear irrelevant to a minor’s application, and it lacks specific options for the required documents. Could you kindly advise on the appropriate drop-down option for uploading a Canadian passport? I have already uploaded the canceled Indian passport. Would it be advisable to combine both passports into a single file for upload? For your reference, I have attached a screenshot of the issue.
Thank you for your assistance, and I greatly appreciate your guidance

Don't worry, my 15th month of daughters thumb print was like a smudge.. it's an arbitrary ask and no one, not even BLS are verifying the finger prints. My daughter's OCI just got granted, so don't worry!

I am also looking for a reliable answer but could not find anything yet.
Hi, Where is it mentioned about pasting the thumb impression paper in the application ? Where exactly you have pasted ? I am in Vancouver jurisdiction
OCI application needs photo and thumb impression to be uploaded.
