IMPORTANT THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND WHILE COMPLETING THESE STEPS
Please ensure that you have a good WiFi connection. The MCD website is prone to error at slow speed. Sometimes it fails to capture the complete name of the child due to technical error.
Avoid VPNs while using website.
No changes will be entertained in the child’s name in the future, so be careful with the spelling of the child’s name.
The Affidavit should be properly drafted and should be notary attested.
While entering the name of the child please ensure you don’t end up editing any other section of the child’s birth reporting form mistakenly.
