START WITH THE DOCUMENT
What are you preparing?
01Caste certificateStart with the certificate requested by the receiving institution. A caste certificate, an NCL certificate and an EWS certificate answer different questions.02Character certificateA request for a character certificate needs more context than a downloadable form. Establish who is asking and which issuing authority they accept.03Income certificate downloadA saved application and an issued certificate are different documents. Keep both, and give the receiving organisation the one it actually requests.04Residence certificateA document that contains an address does not automatically replace the residence certificate requested in a notice. Read the requirement before preparing copies.05Death certificate recordsWhen handling a family record after a death, first establish whether you need registration, a copy of an existing certificate, or a correction. Those are separate tasks.06EWS income and asset certificateAn income certificate alone may not be the document requested for an EWS claim. Begin with the current notice for the specific application.07Birth certificate in BiharThe most useful first question is whether the birth has already been registered. Getting a copy, making a correction and registering an event are different routes.
