indian passport renewal question regarding Indian address

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone, I am trying to fill out the application for the re-issue of the Indian passport in USA. Now they require permanent Indian address to be mentioned and also its proof.

 

I grew up in USA as I came here as a kid. I am a permanent resident here and have never been back home in India and don't really have any home in India. I do have an old Indian address mentioned on my previous passports. I can mention that but I don't really live there and I have no bank account, or adhar card, or any utility bills to give proof of my Indian residence.

 

So what do I do in this case. If I mention the last address I lived at in India, then I don't have any of the three proofs which they asked(adhar card, utility bill, bank statement)

I would use that last address since there is no other choice. Why don’t you apply for Adhar Card?

Thanks for the response. I have never been to India so never needed an Adhar card.  May be next time when I go I will make it.  Planning to go next summer. 

 

I think there maybe an option to do it online.
