True that for the first part. The bureaucracy is a very different animal, which usually does not have a straight logic. So, importing daal is totally different matter than the immigration/issuing visa etc. Governments plays in very different ways. See what is going on in Ukraine and Russia...

Just the latest one. The old ones should not be valid anyways.

LOL, you are now a Canadian Citizen not an Indian any more. That's why. They had to screw someone, we are the easy targets. LOL. :-)

Hi All, Can someone please share their experience of moving from Canada to US? Thanks,

It is because of Mr. Trudeau, this government is always against the present Indian government. Well, then they retaliate with these types of things. LOL. Just saying.

I can track the OCI on government website, it says "Under Process". BLS "Processing at Consulate General"

My Surrender certificate tracker says "surrender certificate has been printed". What does that mean, does it mean they are ready to ship it? How much time does it take from this step? The BLS has charged me for a return shipping, $33, I hope they do actually send via post rather than asking me...

No dont wait. Just gate crush. BLS and Purolator is a deadly combination. Plus they take 6-8 weeks for OCI.

Mine still shows on OCI website "No Record Found" , while on BLS tracking it says "underprocess" I hope the guys at BLS didn't messed up anything. I wonder how long does it shows up or changes from "underprocess" to next steps?

1. Mistake in OCI application was I filled out my Indian Passport details instead of Canadian one. 2. Mistake in Surrender Certificate, as I said that I had filled out these applications well before my citizen certificates, I of course at that time I didn't have my Canadian passport (which BTW...

I wrote a letter to Consulate General stating that I work at XYZ and position, address of employer, phone # etc. I also provided them with my latest paystub as a proof. They kept both the letter and the paystubs. Thanks,

I had explained it to couple other people in DM. I thought I will share it on this thread. "I went to BLS, I had an appointment (I got it before I received my citizenship certificate, Iuckily I had one open but I was not sure if that was an error, I believe it could have been) and I had never...

That's why I asked a couple of times to have a separate OCI tread. This one is really messed up as this goes back 8 years and there is a lot of noise as well. But I guess the main problem is the PUROLATOR and BLS, while the OCI other things are fairly easier. :-)

I just noticed that BLS had input a my phone # wrong. Its correct on my application but on the receipt that BLS gave me has a wrong phone number. Should I go back to them to correct it or let it go? I believe this would be for the Purolator guys? BTW do you know that Purolator is owned by...

My both applications are not found on the government websites (OCI and SC). I can track on BLS website but it shows the records are not found on government websites... :(

Somehow your link does not work but however, when I go to home click on registration (still the same link) it works fine. https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/Registration

My surrender application changed to "Processing at Consulate General" and the OCI application still says "under process"

Well, yes you need other documents. They asked me to submit my additional documents yesterday when I went to submit my application. They asked for current passport, employment letter to be uploaded. I was not able to find that where to upload than under the pressure (while at the window at...
