Domicile rule

What is a domicile rule

Let’s do a more imminent inspection at the domicile certificate. One can receive the certificate from the regional authority (especially Tehsildar) or the revenue department. The domicile certificate is proof of a person’s permanent residence. Distinct rules are made by separate states. If the person is a permanent tenant in the state, they will only issue a certificate. However, in many states, the certificate is issued after a person has lived in the state for numerous years. In Odisha, certificates are issued to individuals who permanently dwell in the state. The certificate can be procured from the local regulatory office and the district office. The certificate can be obtained within 10-15 days. As part of the processing charge, the appellant must pay a specified price. Certain documents are required during the certificate processing as a person’s proof of residence, including Adhar/Pan card, passport photo, address proof. This rule applies to 85% of seats offered by any college in Odisha. But the remaining 15% of the seats are reserved for the non-localities of the Odisha state.

In Odisha, the counseling process is conducted by the Odisha Joint Entrance Examination Committee (OJEEC). This committee carries on the responsibility of declaration of a state merit list after the declaration of NEET results and cut-off list. On the official website of the committee i.e. https://ojee.nic.in, the list is published. Students should visit the website and check the list for their names. The candidates who are selected should carry on with the further process of seat selection and choice filling. 3 rounds of merit lists are published. After the publication of all the merit lists, students are called for the counseling process. For this process, students should download their call letters from the website of the committee. The letter contains the necessary information regarding the place and time and, documents the candidate should carry for the counseling process.

    Client Testimonial

    MBBS Abroad is a big decision and your success depends upon the honesty of your consultant. It is a long process starting from choosing the right college to reaching there at college door step and finally studying there for next 5-6 years. You are in a new country without many old friends. We were sure to approach a consultant who is based out of our district only so that not only during admission but for next 6 years, we can have smooth interactions. So, we approached GKWorks as they have a branch in Saharanpur. As we anticipated, there are lot of things to be done during admission process that goes for 3-4 months. At every step, it was useful for us to have our consultant who was only 20 minutes’ drive from our home. We were able to discuss everything face to face any day and thus were able to have easy process.
