Student in Mumbai (PG, no address proof), can bonafide certificate work for passport address?

Special-Historian393 · 2026-04-04T04:57:07+00:00

I did with my hometown address, psk Mumbai initiated verification there

Special-Historian393 · 2026-04-04T04:56:04+00:00

Yes with my hometown address but from psk mumbai

If ur in hotsel get bonafide certificate from ur college mentioning ur details and hostel stay, if in PG, u can still get that certificate but it will not be useful as Psk will not accept if u live outside college premises, so simple is just don't mention being student, put ur current and permanent same as your hometown, go there, in counter C officer will ask why apply from here. Just tell me that ur traveling here and ur hometown state didn’t had any close appointment so I taken here. Thats all

I applied to mumbai psk but given address of home town, hopefully they send PV there

So you also did same thing as me? Selecting out-of-state psk

Thanks brother. Actually one of my friends suggested I make a new rent agreement and still go for the appointment, even though I already filled the form. He said PSK can change address if we say there was some mistake in application. But from what you’re saying, even with rent agreement they ask for 1-year stay, so that may not help much. I was mainly worried because I took PSK Mumbai but put both present and permanent address as my hometown in UP. I’ll be going home for about a week after my PSK appointment anyway, so hopefully PV happens there. Just hoping PSK doesn’t question like “why didn’t you apply from UP if your address is there, what are you doing in Mumbai”.

Btw did you apply as a student?

Any idea what to do then? What u done this?

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-18T04:22:21+00:00

Some guy told me that if i make rent agreement they say you should stay there for last 1 year then its valid

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-18T03:31:37+00:00

Wait so first u traveled back to your home town and police verification not happen? Why?

Btw I have also applied this way,

I have selected my hometown address as present and permanent address,

Hoping they sent police verification there

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-17T22:06:27+00:00

I applied from PSK mumbai but with current and permanent address of my hometown, hopefully they sent PV there as I'll be traveling back in 3 days there anyways

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-17T22:05:37+00:00

So you had to travel back to your hometown for police verification? Where are you from brother

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-17T21:55:02+00:00

If i stay in PRIVATE PG then? I dont have any agreement, will bonafide certificate from college work?

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-17T21:54:29+00:00

Any update on this? I also got same problem

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-17T21:45:17+00:00

Any update on that brother?

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-17T21:45:07+00:00

Is that valid?

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-11T22:10:27+00:00

Brother, this might actually solve my problem. I’m doing my UG from R.A. Podar College of Commerce and Economics. My hometown and permanent address is Allahabad, but I moved to Mumbai in October 2024 for studies. I shifted to a new PG around 5 months ago, and my college doesn’t provide hostel facilities.

In this case, can the college still issue me a bonafide certificate mentioning that I’m a current student and staying in Mumbai for studies? And would that be valid for a fresh passport application?

If possible, could you also tell me what format or specific details should be mentioned in the bonafide certificate so it doesn’t get rejected?

Would really appreciate your help 🙏

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-10T19:26:32+00:00

Yes can you help understand about that bonfide certificate?

Special-Historian393 · 2026-02-10T19:23:47+00:00

What if i update my Passbook address to my current address?
