Do they send the acknowledgement (start of processing at consulate) via email?

the days mentioned in my post above are only indicative averages for straightforward applications without much complexity. In reality, it fluctuates quite a bit as the TAT is also basis workload at New Delhi given that OCI applications flow in from all over the world.

Hello,

I have applied for my OCI by Purolator and sent them the original Indian Passport. I received my passport back yesterday by Purolator. Do I have to pay again for the return label for OCI booklet?

@abbas.pasha any idea bro?

I am sure it is close to be recived by you.
Btw dispatched from New Delhi and received in Toronto the same day? I am assuming all these are electronic documents. Verbiage sounds like they are shipping it lol.
