Hi

I submitted OCI application (Postal application) to BLS surrey center. They received it on Feb 21st. I see the below update from then

Your OCI application has received at our BLS Surrey Center on 21-02-2025. Please allow 4-5 business days for processing it to IHC/CGI. Please note that this is an auto-generated mail & does not indicate that your application has processed to Indian High commission or Consulate general of India. Please allow 4-5 business days for processing your application to Indian High commission or Consulate general of India. Once your application processed in our BLS center, you will be notified through email service with a unique BLS reference number. The unique number can be use for tracking purpose on BLS website.

No updates after that. I called to BLS customer service twice. They raised a ticket to get the status update.

But no luck at all. Anybody in the same situation? Any Suggestions?

Any idea on how long does it take or the next steps.
