Same, we had already mentioned to them that we will pick it up even though we paid the courier fees, fingers crossed, can you please let me know when the status changes? When are you traveling?

@Pvraju HI, did you get your visa? Mine in the BLS status still says - Under process at the consulate and the https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/StatusEnquiry says Granted but Not-Printed; my travel date is Nov 26th, and very worried. Please let me know your timeline; it will be a great help.

I got my visa yesterday.

Awesome, congratulations. Can you please give us the timeline? When did your status change from not printed to printed after it was granted?

 

[Pvraju]

When did your status change to granted but not printed..I too have the status..it changed ystdy.in the Indian website,they have asked to call the centre if the status changes to printed..I saw a person in the BLS waiting for pick up and the security asked him to come at 3pm.

Not sure when exactly the status chagned. I just came to know about indian website recently. But BLS website is more upto date. 3 days back BLS website changed status to "on the way back to bls office" and then dispatched

The person at the consulate in Vancouver said every evening they update the status

7th November - India website status: Your visa is processed is Granted but Not-Printed BLS Status: Processing at consulate.
