Hello everyone, Just joined this thread today. I have an appointment with BLS Calgary on Dec 11 for OCI application. My previous postal application in Sept got rejected because the Place of Birth on my Indian passport did not match with that on my Canadian passport. One had city and the other...

Update today - Vancouver jurisdiction Mail-in application delivered Oct 30 Application acknowledged Nov 9 (received email from BLS) Granted but not printed Nov 14 (status on Indian visa online) Interestingly the BLS tracking says it is still on the way to CGI.

Alright. I am going to reside in the Vancouver sheet. #wexit ;)

Hi, Please feel free to delete my data as I am from Vancouver jurisdiction. But I don't see a Vancouver specific datasheet anywhere and I think I saw one other Vancouver candidate in this thread who may benefit from my experience. I'd leave the decision to you.

You Sir, brought peace to my mind. Thank you.

Just now received this email: "Reference to your visa application, your visa application is accepted and the passport is with the agent. We shall keep you updated with the progress" I hope this means that there are no errors in my application and they have accepted it for processing. I just...

Postal application delivered to BLS Vancouver on Oct 30. "No Records Found" :confused:

It is in BLS mailroom waiting for a happy soul to open it. We are at their mercy! Nov 13 is world kindness day. I think BLS is waiting for that day to show their kindness.

Hi there, I submitted my application by post and BLS received it on Oct 30. No update. Automatic phone message says wait for 8 working days before contacting BLS for update.

Postal application delivered on Oct 30 BLS tracking this morning: No records found

You are in a better situation compared to me. Same timeline as yours - postal delivered to BLS on Oct 30. No update at all.

Went to Calgary BLS hoping for a walk-in. Waited outside in line for 3 hrs in -10C weather. About 30 people were in line with me. Not a single person was called in for 3 hrs. I gave up and posted the application.

Thank you. That makes sense. I really hope the eVisa comes back.

Applied for OCI last month by post and it was dormant for 2 weeks until I called BLS asking for status update. Then the very next day they emailed me saying my OCI application was rejected because the place of birth doesn't match my Indian passport. The trouble started 20 years ago when my first...

Joining the Entry Visa bandwagon: By Post Delivered: 30th Oct Visa Site: Under process BLS: No records found

Thanks for the reply. My question is not related to the current visa ban. Imagine 6 months ago when things were normal, could a Canadian citizen apply for eVisa? When I open the application website, it asks for nationality. There, there is no option to select Canada.

I am confused when people talk about eVisa for Canadian citizens. I see in the Govt. of India visa website that Canadians are not eligible for eVisa. How is this possible?
