@vipulgoyal88 well that's exactly what I said above your Indian passport stands cancelled and invalid. So the details cannot be used anywhere unless they ask for it explicitly like a copy or something. Indian passport or a copy now stands as a reference point to verify your personal details like...

@vipulgoyal88 It makes sense to use a passport that is valid. Once you receive SC your Indian PP is no longer a valid document it is cancelled and cannot be used anywhere else except when requested explicitly you need to provide a copy or original upon request. We can only use Canadian PP from...

Picked up OCI card yesterday from BLS Brampton journey is finally complete. ALERT: BLS Brampton changed Pick up timings to 3 PM - 4:15 PM reached location at 2:27 PM was 13th person in line. Allowed inside at 3:30 PM out by 3:45 PM looks like they really want to force people to pay for postal...

1 suggestion @ BLS Brampton there are loads of appts under Visa Category from July 11 so I would recommend you to do an in-person submission and then do a postal service if you live far away from Brampton. You will anyway have to send it to Brampton AFAIK with postal service and not Toronto. I...

A question from a Friend. They will do SC + Entry Visa walk-in @ BLS Brampton can it be done in 1 appointment or do they need to do it twice ?

@dushyant2809 Thank you. Yes, I denied their postal service as BLS Brampton location is less than 10 minute drive away from my home.

@Troy2245 It is pretty much the norm now. It was actually 6 months ago that it was stopped not 2 months I have been reading that from Dec 2021 first it was GTA and then everywhere in Canada this was implemented. I applied for SC first in April 2022 and received it with in 35 days and then...

@Afzakl Ansari I did same at BLS Brampton applied in person on 16th May Ack on 27th May on OCI Portal. Still under-process.

@Edifytech Did you apply entry visa for 6 months or more ? Assuming 6 months visa since you have mailed them out then you should get your PP with stamp in about 7 working days then you can go ahead and reserve the tickets. So it would be about 2 weeks from now until you get your PP in Hand with...

@akbardxb Am really sorry to read this feedback and the pain you have been through. Can you confirm the BLS office you have been to ? I had a similar situation at BLS Brampton with Appointment on Apr 6th 2022 did SC without Canadian PP. I did some homework on this forum and did understand...

@sheikhzaid Earlier I read here that you are not allowed to apply for Surrender Cert. and OCI at the same time in Toronto but I see some people have done this from Brampton. It would be great if you can quote or find the above comment in this forum. It has been about 6 months i.e. since Dec...

@alexpolis007 This time you will submit @ BLS Brampton Office : 40 Gillingham Drive Behind the Brampton Passport office as all the OCI applications have to be submitted there ONLY and not @ 60 Gillingham Drive above service canada, where you must have submitted SC so the guards will be different...

@sheikhzaid What do you mean by family or relatives ? No Dependants. Then it should be pretty straight forward. All you need is a Photo both physical and Digital Copy of signature as well. Fill up form on OCI portal https://ociservices.gov.in/ Scan copies of SC and Canadian PP and Originals...
