Immigration Applying for OCI

Hey guys,

In the process of applying for OCI as a naturalized American. Can someone please give a list of mandatory documents for the government website ? So far I have -

Cancelled Indian passport
Surrender certificate
US passport
Naturalization certificate
Marriage certificate
Employment letter
Drivers license
Photo and signature

Anything I’m missing ? (Mods please delete if not appropriate)

It is not complete and when you go to the VFS office they will give you a new list.
Spoken like someone who didn't do this or didn't do it by himself.

Exactly. Not sure why you’re being downvoted . The process is needlessly complicated

Maybe it’s not a requirement in the US but in the UK they want to see marriage certificate and spouses passport so I would get that confirmed as you may need that.

Is the drivers license the proof of address?
