can I get a relation certificate from any relatives for army
For recruitment into the Indian Army, a relationship certificate from relatives can be used in specific cases, primarily for candidates applying under the "Son of Serving/Retired Army Personnel" or similar categories. Here's what you should know:
Types of Relationship Certificates :
-
Relationship Certificate :
- Purpose : This is required to prove your relationship with a serving or retired army personnel.
- Issuing Authority : This certificate must be issued by the concerned authority in the Army, such as the Record Office or a unit’s office.
- Contents : It should detail the nature of the relationship (e.g., son, daughter) and provide relevant details about the serving/retired personnel.
-
Supporting Documents :
- Proof of Service/Retirement : You may need to provide documents such as a service or retirement certificate of the relative, along with their Army Identity Card.
- Proof of Relationship : Documents like birth certificates or family registers that establish your relationship with the army personnel.
Process to Obtain the Certificate :
-
Contact the Relative’s Unit : The relative should approach their respective unit or the Record Office where they were last posted or are currently serving. They will guide you on the process and required forms.
-
Fill Out the Form : You may need to fill out a specific form to request the relationship certificate. This form can often be obtained from the Record Office or downloaded from official Army recruitment websites.
-
Submit Required Documents : Provide all necessary documents and proof as specified by the authority issuing the certificate.
-
Verification Process : The authorities will verify the documents and relationship before issuing the certificate.
Alternative Options :
- If the relative is not available or cannot obtain the certificate, you might need to apply under the general category, which does not require a relationship certificate.
