You would need to select "Network" under Developer tools and when you click "Track Application Status", you should see a network call like "https://portal3.passportindia.gov.in/Online/secure/trackStatusForFilledApplication?timestamp=1648225064534" and the response for that call will contain the entire statusI opened the page in inspect mode but could not find values EVENT_DESC, etc. Can you guide where to find that info ?

Rajnut - Did you get your passport ?My passport didn't go for police verification. But my passport moved from "Passport application is under review at Indian Embassy/Consulate" to next step which is printing in 2 weeks.
For minor's application whether minor is expected to sign on all the forms & self-attestation OR is it to be done by both (or single) parent?I submitted renewal for my kid (minor) on 31st March by walkin appointment at Brampton BLS, In two days its status changed to "Passport application along with fee details have been received. The same is under processing at the Embassy/Consulate." but is same even today. Not sure if police verification will be issued for minor passport renewal, I changed the address to Canada and previous passport has Indian address. Any suggestions if the timeline is normal and what to expect next ?
As a PR can we apply for passport renewal as address will be changed on passport? I am exploring options for my minor kid.Hello,
I was wondering if someone could share some insight. My passport expired couple of months ago. I have a citizenship application in progress which started in Oct end 2021. Now I am looking to renew my passport, since bls takes the original for renewal, should I apply for renewal under tatkal for faster processing or is it not worth 3x price. The only reason I am thinking tatkal is because just in case I get called for test/interview I will need the original.
Any feedback appreciated.
Thanks
Yes address on passport can be changed to Canadian address if you are a PR. You need to provide proof of address.As a PR can we apply for passport renewal as address will be changed on passport? I am exploring options for my minor kid.
Sorry, I meant to ask about tatkal passport. So correct question is:Yes address on passport can be changed to Canadian address if you are a PR. You need to provide proof of address.
