I walked into BLS Edmonton office yesterday and I saw few new posters which wasn't there when I went to apply for OCI. It basically said that they are short staffed, and the wait is longer. So that might be it.
May i ask, how long did it take for BLS to get it after the OCI website said received at Consulate. After i posted this question I checked and it says ready for pickup.
