Hello everyone Few more questions came up as i was filling up my minor child (born in India) Regarding Indian ties -In Drop down option there is SELF and also Parents were born in India. I believe it should be self and i will attach my daughters indian passport and surrender certificate copy...

That makes sense to me.

Yes i am sending by post within this week.

Seems like something wrong in Checklist for Toronto as I don't see these documents asked for minor applications in Vancouver Jurisdiction.

Hi All- Few more questions around OCI Application a) Do BC Applicants need to provide NOC form for the minor child. BLS for the first time said NO for BC Residents. But just to double check b) Self attested documents- Is signature enough or do i need to write "This is true copy of the...

hi there- i called up BLS yesterday and seems like some changes in requirements they asked me to attach marriage certificate for minor child application and I directed them to checklist which said if parents names are endorsed in each other passport then not required. But seems like consulate...

I am done with dealing with BLS, I will let my son continue with OCI linked to US Passport. Since there is change in rule and now they need Apostille Copy of Birth Certificate if Child was born in USA. I have attested copy from Department of State and seriously have no time to deal with all...

Finally today after a long wait i got connected to some one at BLS (you know the very way people speak you can assess they are smart or dumb). The person immediately responded that if your son US Passport is still valid you can travel to India and you don't need to renew till 18 years of age but...

Ok sounds like a good option, i was only concerned what will they do with my application if its completed. May be apply OCI for now and may be timelines improve and i may get it back by the time i fly (could be likely touch and go) but i will have Evisa to be safe

Thanks for letting me know, i will perhaps hold on OCI till my return and book some appointments for April Evisa seems to be only saviour now.

Surrey, BC Finally today it shows its been printed.

I have travel plans to India in Feb end next year. All bookings in place since July and as expected in the middle citizenship application was completed. Received the Passports and it's been about a month that surrender certificate is lying with Indian Consulate. Anyone else facing similar...

No you don't i have submitted postal application and only took colored copy and self-attested and sent it/.

They deserve to such treatment as they harass people. You feel like you are government office in India where we always get the following: - Come tomorrow - This is missing - Officer has gone for leave - System is down end less list of excuses. I believe that they start charging more service...

Getting a Refund from BLS, Don't waste time on this

Thumb impression just on OCI form which will be also scanned nothing on documents, it’s should be self attestation by parents
