IT's a government written letter, from your home government

Contact the office in Delhi, if you are an Indian

Give them 1000 Rs, they will do it for you.

assuming by your name kavya that you are an Indian - go to ministry of Health and Family Welfare at Nirman Bhawan, New Delhi and take with you a copy of your passport, and a copy of the contract letter. the written assurance form's contents can be found at the following link:

---------- No Objection Certificate' for Indian Doctors under going higher training/studies in the USA


Consulate General of India (in Washington DC only) is authorized to issue certificate for residency training in the medical/medical speciality for a period of one year or more and for any medical speciality where the duration of training is less than one year. ( you will need to renew every year)





For areas involving more than one year of training the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare may be approached directly at the following address for necessary authorization(seems like the better option- since you keep the original and send a copy of the same every year to ECFMG for the renewal)



(current as of March 2006)

Ms. Anita Puri

The Consulate will issue the certificate for a period of one year initially. A written assurance in the prescribed form, undertaking to return to India at the end of the training must be submitted. This has to be sent directly to the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare at the address given above, a copy endorsed to this Embassy along with the application.





Certificate for subsequent years can be renewed only after written assurance has been submitted and on production of a letter from the Ministry of Health directly sent to the Applicant, stating that the written assurance has been accepted.
