Hi Guys,
My wife's passport and mine are not updated with spouse's name. So while applying for PCC from passport office online, what should be filled in Marital Status field (Single or Married).
Have anyone faced such situation while applying for PCC from India? Pls suggest
Thanks
I had the same situation.
I would advice dont apply for PCC from Passport office as they had rejected my application due to "married" wrriten in form and the passport was not having the spouse name.
There are 2 alternatives. 1) take your PCC from police station you wont get any difficulties. and you will get that with married status.
2) reissue your passport first. then apply for PCC from passport office.
At that time I opted option 1.
We got the PCC with the name of my wife of before her marriage.
As we are providing marriage certificate, we need to write married. However your wife will have the name in PCC as per the passport only.
the height is the PCC says Mrs (My wife name) (her father name) (her surname). Hope you got this sign ;D
The later part story is, to get the PR card for my wife with my name as a surname, we both updated our passport. Now will submit this updated details to NDVO once I get the PER.
In case, if earlier PCC are no longer valid for NDVO and if they ask then again I will send them new PCC as per our new passport.
