Question: Hi What proof will be required to show that I have been staying in India for the required time period while applying for citizenship. Best Regards
Answer: Details of address in India for last nine years is generally asked for on the citizenship application form. Along with copy of valid residential permit/Long term visa. As far as proof of time period spend in India by a foreigner can these days be easily verified by a person’s passport as every entry and exit from India is stamped at point of arrival/departure in India.
