in the OCI website, it says the same thing that it delivered to Toronto on OCT 10. Purolator tracking I found from BLS website.
OCI process
- Thread starter blueshirt
- Start date
It was a postal application. The sheet is updated incorrectly. Applied is Oct-6, Ack-ed should be Oct-11.
Please update
Just got Acknowledgement. Checked 10 mins back it was no record found.
| Date Of Acknowledgment | 12-OCT-2023 | ||
| Registration Status at Mission | TORONTO | ||
| OCI Application Status | UNDER-PROCESS |
Since for both it was delivered on 29th, I am guessing between today and tomorrow you will get it too. And then 21 days count will start.
That's excellent news. We're slowly getting back to the 13-14 day Ack timeline after the delay following the long weekend. Good to see that -- every single day counts
Ack-ed date in the tracker is the one from the Consulate which is a critical stage in the process. Applied date is when application is accepted by BLS which is easy to determine for walk-in, not so easy for postal. For the latter I try to use the best estimate of that date -- for you ACK from BLS is a place holder for that. Please update when it changes to underprocess at BLS or Processing at consulate General.
That said if Oct 11 ACK is from the consulate pls confirm. Thanks.
Hello Everyone,
We recently became Canadian Citizens (originally Indian Citizens) and are awaiting to get our Canadian Passports.
I had a question around the Passport Surrender and OCI Application process.
We are based out of Toronto and I was wondering if we can submit our Passport Surrender and OCI Applications (later on) in Montreal given the number of open appointment slots available in Montreal?
Or is this not possible as our based/main location is Toronto?
Really appreciate your response.

No you cannot.
You need to provide address proof along with your surrender/OCI applications
@somak2001 It was still underprocess on 29th right? So may be reached the Consulate only on 2nd -- hang in there, Ack will come soon.
In the tracker we have a couple of cases of same day application but ack separated by 4 days, so do not panic yet. Some out-of-order ack does happen.
For OCI application for a minor, would the minor have to self-attest the copies of the foreign passport with a thumbprint? I realise this might sound like a stupid question, but they do require the thumbprint of the minor on the application form...
