Did anyone else had a little gap on the right hand side where the photo is attached on the OCI application form ?
OCI process
- Thread starter blueshirt
- Start date
Also, I have a question for Entry Visa application can we select Tourist or do we have to select Entry Visa
OCI Postal Application (2 Adults + 1 Minor)
Brampton BLS Postal Application
Application Sent : 03-Nov-2023
Application Delivered : 06-Nov-2023
BLS - Application Date : Changed to 18-Nov-2023 (earlier 09-Nov-2023)
BLS - Application status: Under process since 18th Nov 2023
BLS - Processing at Consulate General: 20th Nov 2023
OCI Tracker: No such record found
Winnipeg comes under Toronto Jurisdiction. Follow timelines here: OCI Tracker - Toronto
You may get process update on OCI tomorrow.
Entry Visa -- tourist visa is still suspended though the form may allow you to choose it.
You can pay BLS fees using debit. For the OCI fee payable to the consulate draft is required.
As for how many applications they allow per appt., it seems to depend on their mood -- some agents accepts many while some asks for multiple tokens.
My application was returned for a missing document (Citizenship certificate) _ I'm 100% sure I sent it. Resubmitted last week, no update on BLS site yet
That's unfortunate, why dint the BLS contact you first, in-case of missing documentation before submitting it to the embassy.
Yes there’s a small gap on the right in the pdf, the preview shows picture fit in the box perfectly at the time of uploading
Apparently nothing much can be done about it, no matter how wide the picture is, the gap is unavoidable
BLS returned the documents set to me - they took 13 calendar days to open it. And they also said the shoulders were not visible in the photo (which was weird). A couple of days before rejection, I called them up to follow up on the status since there was no update whatsoever on their website. They told me that they have received the package and I said then update it online atleast and guess that must have pissed them off. lol
My new application reached to them on the 14th Nov (per Purolator tracking) but still there is no update on their website
I gathered you applied in Winnipeg on Oct 06 by walk-in -- if so application date is Oct 06. If that's not correct please let me know.
Received on Oct 11 by CGI ? I do not track that date.
