NEET PG Counselling 2024: Documents required for nationality change
MCC advised candidates to send all the documents in a single mail within the deadline as mails received after the stipulated time will not be considered. The following documents will be required:
Documents claiming that the sponsorer is an NRI (passport, visa of the sponsorer).
- Relationship of NRI with the candidate as per the Supreme Court orders
- Affidavit from the sponsorer that he or she will sponsor the entire course fee of the candidate duly notarized.
- Embassy certificate of the sponsorer (certificate from the consulate).
- NEET scorecard of the candidate.

The counselling panel further warned candidates against fake documents. “The conversion of nationality of candidates from ‘Indian’ to ‘NRI’ is ‘Provisional’ based on the documents submitted by the candidates which will be verified by the allotted college authorities at the time of reporting and the embassy certificate from the sponsorer may be sent to the Ministry of External Affairs/ respective high commissions for verification. If found ‘FAKE’ the provisional allotment of candidate may be cancelled and legal action might be initiated by the competent authority,” it stated.
