  3. Please tell me whether address-change of sc certificate is possible or not, because I have shifted to a new address and my aadhar card is also having the new address. so both are having different addresses presently. Of course both my addresses are within West Bengal.

    My 2nd question is if the change of address for SC certificate is not possible, will there be any problem for admission in school/college etc due to this different address from the address of AADHAR card

    Please reply

  14. Dear Sir,
    I am the first applicant of my family. None of my family members holds cast certificate. So what should I do while submitting the documents as mentioned, ” upload parents’ caste certificate” ? I have been asked to submit two caste certificates. But in my locality no one holds caste certificate from my sub-caste. What should I do in this case? And what should be the time limit of the deed? Whether the deed should be of my ancestral house or ploughing field? Whether I have to collect the receipt of tax from panchayat or from BLR office? Please help!!! I am in utter confusion.
