Hi,
Your school certificate lists your mother's abbreviated name, whereas your graduation certificate features her full name. In such a scenario, you can obtain an affidavit. Additionally, you can have your mother's name updated by following the steps outlined below.
- Original marksheet (or provisional certificate).
- Birth certificate or school record showing correct parent name.
- School leaving certificate/transfer certificate showing correct parent name (if available).
- Parent’s identity proof (Aadhaar, passport, voter ID) with correct name.
- Affidavit on non-judicial stamp paper (format varies by state/board) stating the error and correct name, signed by parent(s) and notarized.
- Recent passport-size photograph(s) (if required).
- Application form for correction (board-specific, downloadable).
- Proof of relationship if required (e.g., admission register extract, domicile certificate).
- Fee (demand draft/online payment as per board).
