sorry i have an query.. what does creamy layer mean?.. so without uploading income certificate can i get OBC certificate for creamy layer?
1. If the total family income is more than 8 lakhs then you are in the creamy layer so you will not any OBC benefits.
2. Income Certificate is compulsory to get an OBC certificate.
Hope it helps you. Still having queries, let me know via comment.
Whose income certificate to upload ? Mine or my parent ?
Are you married? If you have a separate ration card then you have to submit your income certificate otherwise parent’s income certificate.
Thank you for your reply, my father passed away few years ago and my mother is not working. I am the only earning person in my family. Now I want obc non creamy layer certificate for job. How can I get income certificate for my mother (since she is not working).
You have to provide the family head person Income Certificate. Anyway, I don’t know the correct answer to this question. Please consult your VAO to clarify this.
In an OBC clarification by govt . If a person is appointed as classIII or class IV or in Group D or Group C he cannot be treated as creamy layer. But officials are standing by gross salary. Pls confirm.
Let me research.
Hello Mr. Ranjith
Ragavi here. I have applied for OBC certificate in tnesevai online portal. It’s been 12 days but there is no improvement. Initially the application submitted to VAO verification, and the current status is same as before 12 days. I heard that the entire process would take 15 days to complete. What would be the reasond for delaying in the process?
It depends on VAO. Approximately you will get OBC Certificate within 30 days. If the status doesn’t change then ask your VAO.
Thank you Mr. Ranjith.
Hello Ranjith,
Thanks for the useful information. Kindly clarify my query.
I’m married, and my husband salary is greater than 8 lacs. Can I still apply for obc certificate with my father’s income certificate? I’ve a separate ration card with my husband and will hinders in some way? And for applying UPSC IAS prelims in Feb 2020 WHEN should I get the obc cert? How to proceed further pls guide me.
Hi If your family income is more than 8lacs then you will Creamy Layer OBC Certificate which means you won’t get any benefits. You are having a separate ration card so you couldn’t able to apply via your father’s income certificate.
Is the total process is completely online or should we meet any officials in person?
