Your Delhi birth certificate from 1965 listing only your mother's name might not cause issues for everyday activities within India. However, some situations like applying for visas, green cards, or even certain government benefits, might require both parents' names.
Here are some options to explore:
Adding your father's name (if possible): Check with Delhi authorities to see if this is feasible. You might need additional documents like your parents' marriage certificate.
Affidavit as an alternative: If adding your father's name isn't an option, consider obtaining affidavits from close relatives (parents, siblings) verifying your parentage.
The best course of action depends on your specific needs:
Contact the Delhi authority responsible for birth certificates for advice on adding your father's name or alternative options.
If you plan to use the birth certificate for immigration purposes, consult an immigration attorney for specific guidance based on the country you're applying to.
Being proactive and having the necessary documentation can save you trouble in the future. Contact NRIWAY for more information.
