My passport application status is showing:- Passport has been handed over by the Embassy/Consulate to the OSP executive for further dispatch to the applicant.

Does this mean that renewal is done and they will courier it to me now? Can I check the courier status with bls?
I have same status since last week. I Contacted BLS but they are saying passport is still processing at high comission.

Call BLS and let us know what they say.

What was your application status right before this? Is this the status from the passportindia.gov website or BLS?

Hi,

This is the status from https://portal4.passportindia.gov.in/Online/index.html portal. I am not sure about my previous status as I didn't check here before.

However, my staus at BLS is still - Processing at High Commission.

@devmtl - I called them now but they gave the same answer that it is being processed at the high commission. The status will change once they have received the passport. Nothing new from their side.
Thanks...Let me know if anything change for you.

My application status on the BLS website just got updated from "Processing at Consulate General" to "In transit from Consulate General to BLS Centre". The last status update I saw on the passportindia.gov.in website was yesterday where it said "Passport has been printed".

My BLS status is changed to Dispatched via Courier as well.

I checked shipping label for purolator was created on 9-Oct. Its not picked up yet.
I get an error message on Purolator's tracking page when I enter the tracking number provided by BLS. I'm guessing it's probably not picked up yet.
