If you have been born in Tamilnadu and studied until your 12th in Tamilnadu, then younare called a Bonafide resident of Tamilnadu. In such case you do not need a nativity certificate. But if you do not belong to Tamilnadu but completed all your education here even then you do not need Nativity certificate because you completed all your education here. But according to https://medicine.careers360.com/articles/tamil-nadu-mbbs-admission if you do not belong to Tamilnadu, then you can only get admission under General Quota if you have studied from 6th to 12th here. So please help us with your situation.

Thank you for your response. I am not born in TN and neither my parents. But we have a own house in TN and residing for last 10years. I studied here from class 1 to 12th. When you mentioned that I am qualified for general quota, does it mean TN state quota?

Lets say if you belong to OBC Category, you still have to participate under General Category because you are not a bonafide resident of Tamilnadu.
