Three generations

Grandparents, parents and children – Doaba families’ certificates

Parent-and-grandparent sponsorship to Canada or settlement in the UK often needs the grandparents’ birth records too. Those may be old village records or late registrations; if legible and signed, they are apostillable.

Parents usually hold certificates from MC Jalandhar or a nearby council; children born after 2000 have QR-coded certificates.

Families in the Cantonment area have certificates from the Cantonment Board – fully valid.

Punjab-wide guidance is covered separately.
