We entered family members' details who live in India in OCI application.

Do they do checks with family members in India for OCI application?

We can't be sure unless we see the acknowledgment in the OCI services website. Then again, that comes after 10-15 days.

Where you able to connect to BLS?
No the call centre kept cutting the call, will try next week again

Great news!

My OCI application was delivered by Purolator on Sep 27. It is not displaying in BLS tracking or OCI status link.

Should I be concerned?
Your name is Krish you should have flown to BLS and submitted your application. Oh wait, did you take the mask off for the photograph ? :p

ok on a serious note, it take 3-4 extra days for BLS to display the status on their website. Purolator will deliver to a BLS facility and it will be sorted, documents will then be checked and processed furthe.

Next week tak status update ho jaayega

Hello everyone - I need your help with clarification regarding the OCI card for my son, who is currently a dual citizen of the United States and Canada.

Previously, my son obtained his OCI card based on our (parents') Indian citizenship. However, since then, my spouse and I have acquired Canadian citizenship, and our son has also become a Canadian citizen through dual nationality.

Given these recent changes in our citizenship status, we are unsure about the appropriate steps to take regarding our son's OCI card. Could you provide me with information on the following process for updating or obtaining a new OCI card for him?

Specifically, I would like to know:
  • Is it necessary to apply for a new OCI card for our son, now that he holds Canadian and US citizenship?
  • If a new OCI card is required, what are the documents and forms that need to be submitted for the application?
  • In case an update is needed rather than a new card, what documents and procedures are involved in the OCI card update process?
In BLS, I am not able to find my answers. Thank you very much.

You dont need to get new OCI card for your son. Just use your son's US passport instead of Canadian while entering/exiting India.
