Hello,
You can obtain an OBC-NCL (Other Backward Classes-Non-Creamy Layer) certificate on your own basis after marriage, even if you're excluded from your family's Jan Aadhaar and have a separate Jan Aadhaar. Ensure your caste is listed in the Central List of OBCs and your family income is below the Non-Creamy Layer threshold (Rs. 8 lakh per annum). Required documents include valid ID proof, caste certificate of your father or relative, income certificate, proof of residence, and separation certificate (if applicable). Visit your local Tehsil or Sub-District Magistrate office, fill out the application form, attach documents, and pay the prescribed fee.
The separate Jan Aadhaar will serve as proof of residence and separation from your family. If your income is below the NCL threshold, you're eligible for an OBC-NCL certificate. Certificate validity varies by state, typically 1-3 years. Verify required documents and process with local authorities, ensure your caste certificate is issued by a competent authority, and keep income proof and documents updated. For state-wise guidelines, visit the National Commission for Backward Classes (NCBC) website or your state government's website or Backward Classes department.
