- Thread starter rai786
- Start date
who will sign the kids photocopies?
The parent whose surrender being applied along with kid surrender?
Or the other parent who is submitting first parent and kids surrender application at bls?
Or any parent can sign?
Did you get update?
Did they courier all applications certificate together in 1 envelope as you paid one?
Did you get any update?
Are you able to get all certificates and cancelled passports back together in single courier ? Or they are asking you to pay for each application return separately?

Download the checklist. It has the document list.
Can't trust bls online checklist, that's why I asked.. have been burnt when applied kid oci in past when they asked more documents which were not there in respective checklist.. and charged much extra for that.
For anyone who has done a postal application - any suggestions/tips/dos and don'ts? I have paid the pick up drop off through the BLS site so here is what I am including, please let me know if anything needs to be corrected
1. The checklist, where I have checked in the box next to documents and signed the checklist
2. The online application form. - I have signed it at 2 places and attached the photograph.
3. Original Indian passport - last held.
4. Photocopies of last held indian passport (Page with photo, page with address information etc. and all other pages where I have visas or entry/exit stamps)
- I have signed each page and put a date as well
5. Photocopy of my Canadian passport with the photo page and the page with my signature
- I have signed and put a date for self attestation
6. Photocopy of my Citizenship Certificate (front and back on separate pages)
- I have signed and put a date for self attestation
7. Photocopy of my drivers licence
- I have signed and put a date for self attestation
I will get a demand draft from the bank tomorrow morning and add that to the parcel.
Should I include
- any extra photos?
- any other document?

Why do we need all pages of passport with visa entry exist stamps? I thought only first and last pages were needed for Indian passport..
I was not sure if only the first and last page or all pages- happy to know from others experiences and change accordingly
Has anyone recently tried this with postal application for surrender?
Is toronto consulate still accepting it?
Hi everyone,
I am filling out the application for surrender certificate. However the online application asks for present residential address (which obviously is canada) but IT IS MANDATORY TO fill Village / City / State.
there is no option for canadian addresses such as state Ontario.
The only options available are for Indian state and districts.
Please advise as to how did one overcome this.
Thank you!

You have to choose "Is your Present Residential Address out of India?" as Yes
Currently you are selecting "No" because of which it is expecting Indian address.
Guys, I had randomly booked an appointment for OCI card for 29th dec morning at Ottawa BLS. Till today morning my surrender certificate status was processing at high commission. But I just checked and it changed to ready for collection. The pick up time is 3-4.30pm. Do you guys think I should take chance and go prepared tomorrow morning and request them to give me surrender certificate in the morning itself which I can attach with the application. Please suggest
