Does anyone know if there are processing delays that are to be expected for Surrender certificate and OCI? There is some news today that both countries have withdrawn a few of the diplomats that were stationed.

Thank you for the response. The second link I have shared is the checklist for the Toronto location. Surrender Of India Citizenship (blsindia-canada.com) This is where I got that pdf from. If you google BLS, it'll take you to the main BLS page. After that you have to pick Toronto (Option 1)...

6 months? I really hope that was due to covid and not just the standard processing time.

Its been three weeks since they said its approved, guess I just have to wait. How long did it take for the passport to reach you after getting the tracking number?

"We have received your application and are now reviewing it" Been that way for more than a month. So I called and asked, they said its approved and is in the queue to be dispatched. Called 3 times, all 3 times they said the same thing. That its approved already but its waiting to be dispatched...

Its been more than 30 business days since I applied for it. I asked for the status for the past 3 weeks. Each time they said that there's a backlog for printing it. Does anyone have an ETA of when I can expect it? I went for the regular 20 bus. days + shipping time, applied in person at a...

For anyone else stumbling on this thread, canceling appointments is no longer possible. When I initially booked my slot, I was only able got dates 7 weeks later. When I checked a few weeks later, there were a lot of new slots where every day was open for the next 5 weeks. You have to wait for 1...

Did you at any point in the past use a third party like a lawyer/immigration consultant when applying for Canadian visas ?

They clearly mention only 1 device is allowed in the invitation. If they suspect you used two devices instead of one then you'll have issues.

This is just common sense. If you have to pay someone to give you a job its 100% a scam. They prey on your desperation.

I should have clarified, its a Canadian driver's license and Canadian Health card. I'll just use these.

Honestly none of those documents you listed are required. For English proof, its mentioned on the website that you can show proof of doing a college degree in English. But since it was done abroad you might need to get a degree evaluation from a service like WES. I remember having to do that...

It was the 40th anniversary of the Cirque de Soleil company in Toronto and they organized the event in co-ordination with the IRCC. We had a surprise performance from the act at the end of the ceremony. There was no mention of this in the invitation letter, so it was a big surprise! Number of...
