Dear Client,

The domicile of a minor follows the domicile of the parent from whom he derived his domicile of origin and A wife’s (your mother) domicile during her marriage follows the domicile of her husband.

On her separation from husband, you can acquire domicile of bihar.

No based on this the domicile certificate cannot be granted. For domicile you need to stay in bihar for least for 10 years.

Hello,

A Domicile certificate is generally issued to prove that an applicant is a permanent resident of that particular state from past 10 years. So, if you have been usual resident of the place since last 10 years then you may apply for the same.
