How do I cancel already booked appointment with BLS? I have to reschedule my premium lounge appointment and system is asking me to cancel my previously booked appointment.

Hey Guys, I applied for OCI on May 30, 2024 - Wife and Son have got there last week.

Mine is still showing under Process. Any timeline when do you think it will be approved? I have emailed them twice and got no response. Is there a phone number I can call to get the updated status, or to find out whats taking so long? I submitted at the Surrey BC Office.

Thanks

OCI Submitted, Online Uploaded Documents question : So, we have submitted our kids OCI applications yesterday in Ottawa ( Walk-In). Though we submitted copy of Parents Address proof in person ( Drivers Licenses), looks like we didnt upload them online (you know there was no option as such, and we missed to combine them with other Docs).

Question : Do they consider uploaded docs or paper copy to process OCI and would this delay and\or would BLS reach out to us to upload PARENTS Address proof again ?

Any similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Note : As i mentioned we have already submitted our OCI app in person.
