My understanding is once it shows "Counter delivery after OCI stamping " that means it is ready to pick up or delivery to Purolator, still not sure

Can anyone please tell me what to select here in this question?
Spouse Details
Are You applying OCI on the basis of Indian Spouse/ Spouse's OCI-Card? Yes / No

How are you getting your OCI?

Are you a foreign citizen (not a naturalized Canadian) applying for OCI because of an Indian origin spouse or Were you an Indian Citizen before and applying OCI?

If later then your answer should be No.

Hi, on the application form, do I mention IND after Mumbai for place of birth as on my Canadian Passport, the place of birth is mentioned exactly as Mumbai IND? Even though I mention country as India and state as Maharashtra, do I still have to include IND with Mumbai for place of birth? I'm asking this because when I asked BLS call centre about this, they always say mention Place of Birth exactly as per Canadian Passport.

Also for the profession letter, I'm reluctant to ask my employer for a letter for OCI. So instead I'm planning to write a cover letter myself with all the employer information. Would a self written cover letter also be fine? Has anyone received their OCI with a self written cover letter for profession?
