For the purpose of registration, an entity is required to fill up and submit Form 1 A (Application For Registration Under PMMVY And Claim For First Instalment). The information that needs to be provided in this form includes - Beneficiary Details, Husband Details, Address (Present Residence Address), Details of Bank / Post Office Account, etc. Some of the documents that need to be submitted along with Form 1 A are Copy of MCP Card, Card/Identity Proof, Copy of Aadhaar, Copy of Bank/Post, Office Account and Passbook.
It is essential to note that the beneficiary will have to apply for benefits under the PMMVY Scheme within 730 days from Last Menstrual Period date (as found in the MCP card). If the LMP date is not available, the individual will need to apply within 460 days from the date of child birth. Taking into consideration the fact that only government hospitals have authority to register and update the MCP Card, those individuals who avail services from private hospitals cannot claim the PMMVY benefit. MCP card details are mandatory in order to claim any instalment under PMMVY.
