Yeah, same for me. Whats you jurisdiction, Toronto? I applied from Brampton, under Toronto jurisdiction.

Please check the BLS Tracking. I see that BLS have updated the courier tracking number on my application. OCI site still shows as not received at Toronto.

If you don't mind me asking, which jurisdiction did you apply from? Toronto/Vancouver/Ottawa?

Ohh ok. In that case we are in the same boat, lets keep each other informed on the updates.

Just checked and found that the status of my application on BLS website has changed to "Counter Delivery to BLS Centre after OCI stamping". Check yours too, probably updated for you as well.

Please get her signature. No need for the thumb impression. Please ensure her signature matches with the one on the Canadian Passport and Surrender Certificate. Just in case BLS matches it with those docs.

Thanks a lot. One more question related to this.

In the printed Application form under Declaration section -> Application for minor child there is a field "Signature of Applicant". Does this need to be signed by the child too?

Don't sign it yet. Ask at the BLS counter, they asked me to sign it on my child's behalf. But ask there and then do. Also, a suggestion to take an extra copy of the form, in case you make a mistake while signing you can use the other filled form.

I just did this online on ECI website after signing up and filling up the profile with EPIC number and Indian phone number. You may need an Indian phone number or email ID alone may suffice. This is something to be checked. Form 7 has some fields that need to be filled with their digital keyboard.

Once submitted, you will receive an acknowledgement.

DId you create new account as Overseas Indian voter or Indian resident voter? I created account as Overseas Indian voter, its not letting me fill online form 7, asked for fill in details of EPIC number. I tried many times to enter EPIC number , its giving me error "EPIC no not in the right format, not Match. Let me know how did you create account and filled EPIC number?
Thanks
