Based on 8-9 weeks its taking currently, it will be first or second week of Jan. If you need to travel better go for entry visa.

agar diye thei to tues/wed take deliver ho jaana chahiye status will change Ready for Dispatch and you may see the AWB#. If you do not see AWB#, just go to purolator website and include your application# like CANxxxx

Agar tumne paise nahin diye thei...to status will change to Ready for collection.
You can collect between 3:00 - 4:30 Mon-Fri from BLS

Hi all, have 2 questions:
I applied online through misc services for passport number update for OCI for minor - ack Oct 11 but still not processed... Should I be concerned? Toronto jurisdiction. I also applied for myself - OCI renewal - ack Oct 26, our flight is Nov 29. Should I try for entry visa? Thank you in advance!

Not clear what kind of OCI applications you have pending. OCI renewal for what --- new passport on crossing age 20, change of name, or something else? For just passport number update no OCI renewal is required -- file a misc application online and you are done -- nothing to wait for.

New passport on crossing age 20 :( so I need to wait for the new OCI card. Thats why im wondering if i should just get an entry visa at this point.

Even for the minor passport update online - it says still processing rather than completed but I have more hope for that one being fine.

I haven't received my original documents yet. There is no way of getting in touch with BLS on phone ( they don't pick up). No tracking number. No email.
It has been around 27 days since i sent the documents.
Please let me know if anyone is facing the same issue.
can anyone give any advice on this please .
thanks
