Anyone know if a renunciation certificate is required to apply for Indian visa after naturalization? It seems expensive to pay 240 bucks just to get the Cert if it’s not really needed.

You need to renunciate by Indian law. You will have bigger issues when entering India that would look diminutive compared to 240 bucks.

It’s painful but good to do it. You will need it for OCI too

Is this a new requirement?

No, been around for a while.

I paid $2800 to renunciate my Indian passport/citizenship because I did it 10 years after I became a naturalized Canadian citizen. There was no information on this at all. Suddenly one time when I applied for Indian visa, I was told that I have to pay $2800 and get the renunciation certificate before they can grant me Indian visa. They make up sh$t all the time and they just see NRIs as 💰

I agree on the stupid rules they have for NRIs! My husband and I got married in the states and when I applied for oci under his nationality, I had to get our marriage certificate attested by the Secretary of State! This is after I had provided an attested copy. They gave me the run around!

My company has a DPSP program that feeds it directly into an RRSP account. I don't believe there's any RRSP contribution matching program on top of the DPSP (I know I should know, I'm being bad). Assuming there's no matching program, is there still a point in signing up for a X% contribution every paycheck?
